Dear All,
while investigating a problem where a fax number entered in SOGo was not
correctly synced to my Android phone (probably because the Samsung
editor could not map a plain fax number to one of the options "Fax
zuhause" or "Fax dienstlich" I discovered an incosistency that leads to
a feature request.
** Problem **
I entered a simple contact "John Doe" in android with numbers for fax
@work (555555555) and fax @home (numbers 5556666666) and synchronized
this with SOGo (using CardDAV sync).
As a result in SOGo the contact details show the fax number 555555555
(work fax) whereas in Thunderbird addressbook the other fax number
(5556666666) is displayed.
** Comments / Feature wish **
In the SOGo Webfrontend I can display the contacts raw data which is
(correctly):
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
TEL;TYPE=WORK;TYPE=FAX:555555555
FN:John Doe
UID:ebf19be0-7b49-47d2-a61a-db8d4c351bbf
TEL;TYPE=HOME;TYPE=FAX:5556666666
N:Doe;John;;;
PRODID:-//dmfs.org//mimedir.vcard//EN
REV:20140103T153645Z
END:VCARD
Besides this inconsistency I would love it if SOGo would be able to
distinguish working and home fax numbers. Would it be possible to add
this to the Web UI?
I understand that the SOGo Web UI aims to be identical to the
thunderbird frontend. What I do not know is if the addressbook belongs
completely to thunderbird or if it is modified by the sogo addons.
But even if it is not possible to change this in thunderbird I would
prefer if in SOGo there would be an additional field to distinguish work
and home fax numbers.
As a side effect this would probably solve my synchronization problem
with Android (Samsung).
Best regards,
Sven
