Then you have to manage all access credentials (usernames and passwords) for SOGo either in LDAP/AD or in a MySQL/Postgresql Database yourself. Usernames and passwords in SOGo have to be the same as used for accessing your external IMAP store. With this you have to change passwords in SOGo AND your external IMAP store simultaneously in order to use email. >> Ludovic didn't ask for the name of your Provider or your contracts ;-) > > Ludovic knows exactly where I work and who I work with, as anyone can > find from my very public information. ;) I just wanted to say, that you are not answering his question.
