Good day to all,

i would like to provide global calendar and address book function for my users. SOGo seems to be the perfect way to do this but i have some questions though.
I have a Mailserver running with following components:

Postfix
virtual user/domains on MySQL
Dovecot IMAPS
DSPAM
Roundcube Webmailer
Postfixadmin

So far everything works like a charm. I add/delete new users and domains via postfixadmin. Users are able to change their password through Roundcube Webmail or Postfixadmin.

SOGo requiers a database like MySQL/Postgre etc. to store appointments, tasks and contacts information. 1. Why can´t store SOGo this informations in LDAP so that only LDAP is needed in the backend?

2. The authentication can be made agains SQL or LDAP but what is when i´m using a existing database with hunderts of users like me? Is there a migration tool or something similar?

This is what i´ve found in the documentation:

"The view expects columns to be present. *Required* columns are :
◾ c_uid : will be used for authentication – it's a username or [email protected] ◾ c_name : will be used to uniquely identify entries – which can be identical to c_uid
◾ c_password : password of the user, plain text, md5 or sha encoded
◾ c_cn : the user's common name
◾ mail : the user's email address"

3. So basically you can not use a existing database for the user authentication, or am i wrong? 4. How can i manage users/domains like adding new mail addresses changing passwords deleting accounts etc?

Thank you.

Regards. C
