If you want to use quotes inside values you can escape it with \", for example key = "value \"quoted\""; If you want to use "=" as part of a value, you also need to put that value in quotes. As far as I understand the plist format this will give an error: SOGoIMAPServer = imaps://localhost:143/?tls=YES; And this shouldn't: SOGoIMAPServer = "imaps://localhost:143/?tls=YES"; If you still have problems, post your configuration file so we can take a look at it.

Re: [SOGo] How to import settings from GNUStep to sogo.conf
Hello. Thank you for the information, but I'm having problems getting SOGo to read my config file. It just replies with the not-helpful "Contents of file '/etc/sogo/sogo.conf' does not contain a dictionary" Since my config is long, how can I get it to tell me what line of the config file it doesn't like? Do we need semicolons after each directive? After each close parenthesis? After each close brace? Through trial and error, I found so far that it doesn't seem to like quotes and the "?tls=YES" in a URL throws it off, but it still has problems with my 95-line config. (Trial and error is an extremely frustrating way to troubleshoot.) Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Sean M.

Re: [SOGo] How to import settings from GNUStep to sogo.conf
Hi all,
Sorry for the late reply. I wrote the patch for /etc/sogo/sogo.conf
that has recently been merged, but I'm very busy so wasn't really
paying attention to the mailing list.
The file is a plist file just like the .GNUstepDefaults is. The file
won't be rewritten by GNUstep, so you can use the plist format and
GNUstep won't convert it to xml. You can also use the xml format if
you prefer that.
The only difference is in the format is that in .GNUstepDefault you
must specify the "sogod" domain, but you must not do that for
sogo.conf. So if you have for example the following .GNUstepDefaults:
{
"sogod" = {
SOGoLanguage = Dutch;
SOGoAppointmentSendEMailNotifications = YES;
SOGoMailingMechanism = smtp;
SOGoSentFolderName = Sent;
SOGoTrashFolderName = Trash;
SOGoDraftsFolderName = Drafts;
...
};
}
Then for sogo.conf that would be:
{
SOGoLanguage = Dutch;
SOGoAppointmentSendEMailNotifications = YES;
SOGoMailingMechanism = smtp;
SOGoSentFolderName = Sent;
SOGoTrashFolderName = Trash;
SOGoDraftsFolderName = Drafts;
...
}
That's all. The sogo.conf file should be readable by the user that's
running sogo/executes the sogo-tool command. It doesn't have to be
writable.
If both GNUstepDefaults and sogo.conf exists, then both are used. What
happens on startup is that first the sogod domain from GNUstepDefault
is loaded. After that sogo.conf is injected in the sogod domain. So if
a configuration parameter is specified in both the one from sogo.conf
will be used.
Kind regards,
Jeroen Dekkers

[SOGo] How to import settings from GNUStep to sogo.conf
Hi everyone, so far I have not discovered any hints on how to move the settings from .GNUstepDefaults to the new sogo.conf in /etc/sogo/sogo.conf What I need to know: - what happens to the old configuration settings in GNUstepDefaults? Are they simply omitted? - what is the normal format of a key-value-pair? Is it - e.g. - SOGoMailingMechanism smtp or SOGoMailingMechanism=smtp? - how do you have to handle array-values, like SOGoUserSources? Comma separed values surrounded by parenthesis? - what are the correct user/group-permissions for both the folder and the contained file /etc/sogo/sogo.conf? The same as the former .GNUstepDefaults?
