    Hi guys,

    I have successfully installed sogo on my toaster, but there are
    some issues I still need to work on:

    - Auth-backend is ldap and I failed terribly at any attempt to
    have more than one mail domain reflected in the ldap tree
    - i had to manually set up the ldap tree to reflect that one domain

    Luckily, it still solves my immediate problem as I had a
    requirement to offer CalDAV & CardDAV support. Works like a charm!

I had a doubt that Sogo may not support md5crypt, which is how the
passwords are stored in the vpopmail database. It looks like that is the
case.

See this link:

http://mail.opengroupware.org/pipermail/sogo/2010-February/005083.html

I haven't found any later references that say that sogo supports
md5crypt, so it looks like the sogo code WILL have to be patched for
authentication against the vpopmail mysql database. Please note that the
patch in the link may be against an earlier release.

Does sogo support plain login with TLS/SSL? If so, that should work.

While patching sogo is probably more attractive than patching vpopmail, perhaps we should make a request to have vpopmail support whatever it is that sogo is using. (I'm guessing digest-md5).
