Hi all,
Sorry for the late reply. I wrote the patch for /etc/sogo/sogo.conf
that has recently been merged, but I'm very busy so wasn't really
paying attention to the mailing list.
The file is a plist file just like the .GNUstepDefaults is. The file
won't be rewritten by GNUstep, so you can use the plist format and
GNUstep won't convert it to xml. You can also use the xml format if
you prefer that.
The only difference is in the format is that in .GNUstepDefault you
must specify the "sogod" domain, but you must not do that for
sogo.conf. So if you have for example the following .GNUstepDefaults:
{
"sogod" = {
SOGoLanguage = Dutch;
SOGoAppointmentSendEMailNotifications = YES;
SOGoMailingMechanism = smtp;
SOGoSentFolderName = Sent;
SOGoTrashFolderName = Trash;
SOGoDraftsFolderName = Drafts;
...
};
}
Then for sogo.conf that would be:
{
SOGoLanguage = Dutch;
SOGoAppointmentSendEMailNotifications = YES;
SOGoMailingMechanism = smtp;
SOGoSentFolderName = Sent;
SOGoTrashFolderName = Trash;
SOGoDraftsFolderName = Drafts;
...
}
That's all. The sogo.conf file should be readable by the user that's
running sogo/executes the sogo-tool command. It doesn't have to be
writable.
If both GNUstepDefaults and sogo.conf exists, then both are used. What
happens on startup is that first the sogod domain from GNUstepDefault
is loaded. After that sogo.conf is injected in the sogod domain. So if
a configuration parameter is specified in both the one from sogo.conf
will be used.
Kind regards,
Jeroen Dekkers
