achim,

The /.well-known/carddav  and /.well-known/caldav links are the default paths 
used by Apple Address Book and iCal on OSX.  In effect it will allow users to 
enter only the server name in these applications, similar to the way 
/principals works for iOS.

I use this in my SOGo.conf (http config):

Alias /.well-known/carddav /SOGo/dav/
Alias /.well-known/caldav /SOGo/dav/

I hope this helps your Mac users,

Mark
