Hello
Is it possible to have a full SOGo setup, ie SOGo calendars, webmail,
addressbooks, using Thunderbird/Lightning with Connector and Integrator
but only use Thunderbirds local addressbooks? Using all latest SOGo and
Thunderbird 3.1 with latest Connector and Integrator.
I don't know Integrator, but without it, it's no problem.
Integrator is quite cool, the way you can upgrade all your Thunderbird
addons, or deploy configs for those and Thunderbird/Lightning. But yes,
once I remove it, I can only add local address books as required. The
problem is that it also removes the buttons that allow subscribing or
adding calendars in the calendar view, which is a right pain for me.
Something i dont want to lose.
I ask this because with Integrator/Connector Thunderbird wants to
connect to the address books on the SOGo server, whereas I don't want
any addr books to be on there (as Thunderbird 3.1 usage of carddav addr
books is quite buggy).
That's my experience too. Are here people who say: "addressbooks and
Thunderbird 3.1 works good with me" ?
There's been quite a few people who have had issues with this. We find
that Windows 7 users seems to be unaffected by the issues, with only Win
XP machines with issues. But then I also have XP machines where the
problem isnt seen. I would guess that the number of contacts in your
address book, might make a difference somehow, as it appears to be a
timing issue, with Thunderbird responding too slowly. There are also
issues with missing letters when the autoentry fill in of the user's
address book with addressbook contacts. I've set the config
user_pref("sogo-connector.autoComplete.delay", 1300); via Integrator to
user's prefs.js files as suggested by users on this list to mitigate
this error.
Maybe it's an idea to use read-only Sogo addressbooks in Thunderbird,
and do the editing of the addresses on the webinterface?
Possibly, but I cant do that here.
If I remove Integrator, then address books stay local; but then the
buttons to add SOGo calendars and ability to subscribe to a calendar are
lost from using the Calendars in Thunderbird ... I want them back ..... :-)
No, when you remove integrator you can subscribe to a Sogo calendar.
I think this was the case for me when I first setup SOGo and Thunderbird
and Lightning. But certainly now, if I remove Integrator, the buttons
for adding a calendar and subscribing to another user's calendar
disappear too. Perhaps I need to test with a completely clean profile..
You cannot create a new one in Thunderbird (so far I know), but you can
create a new one in the webinterface, and subscribe to it from Thunderbird.
Yes, this is the way I'll have to try for now.

Julian
