At least from the calendar handling in korganizer I conclude, that they use a login name with password that i must provide when creating the akonadi caldav resource ([email protected] + myPassword). Then I must provide the caldav server name which in case of davmail is http://localhost:1080/users/[email protected]/calendar (davmail exposes the caldav end of the gateway on port 1080, in my case it's running on the localhost) In caldav I have to configure the owa-Host (or ews Host). In my office and in my android phone it is outlook.office365.com. > By the way, the redirection problem is a known issue with Microsoft's > hosted services.

The strange thing is, that it is still working from the internet connetion of my office. At the office I am redirected to https://login.microsoftonline.com/login.srf?... where the login succeds. But at home I am redirected to https://login.live.com/login.srf?..., where the login fails. > There are other issues with using our activesync with Microsoft's > services.

The problem as far as I can tell is that the activesyncd daemon gets the login credentials from only one place for all defined sources export email="[email protected]" gconftool --type string --set /apps/activesyncd/accounts/$email/serverUri \ 'https://pod51049.outlook.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync' gconftool --type string --set /apps/activesyncd/accounts/$email/username \ $email (here I use the server name, which is used for Outlook Web Access (OWA) after I have been logged in) If I replace in the second command /apps/activesyncd/accounts/$email/username $email with /apps/activesyncd/accounts/$email/username [email protected] and restart activesyncd I may get the calendar of my colleague with otherUsername. I will try that now. Of course I lwill loose the connection to my own calendar I think. _______________________________________________ SyncEvolution mailing list [email protected] https://lists.syncevolution.org/mailman/listinfo/syncevolution
