This is actually the side-effect of my patch to put SOGo's configuration in /etc where it belongs, instead of the standard GNUstep defaults mechanism. Because my patch just reads /etc/sogo/sogo.conf once on startup, it will never overwrite anything and the configuration file can also easily be owned by root instead of the sogo user. The patch is attached to the bug report http://sogo.nu/bugs/view.php?id=1156 and is also in the Debian packages I created. Those packages are currently in unstable and will hopefully enter testing soon. Kind regards, Jeroen Dekkers -- [email protected] https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
