Thanks ... but I don't understand this yet. Sorry for being a complete newbie and asking so dumb questions: What do you mean with "using SQL for authentication"? A SQL database is something for storing data and you need to authenticate in order to _access_ a SQL database ... I understand that SOGo needs a SQL database for storing calendar entries and address book content ... I have read the SOGo manual but it explains almost nothing. No description of the architecture, how all those moving parts fit together ... nothing. Is there hope for someone like me to find a way to understand how SOGo works and how I can use it? I should say that I am (in my job) a IBM Domino expert for 20 years and an expert for many other products, too. But I really have a problem getting a grip on products like SOGo when there is almost no documentation and only a group of some experts (those who wrote it ...) who only speak in some chinese dialect :-) about their product. I just don't have the time to spend many hours analyzing the source code in order to understand how it works ... I hope you understand what I mean. I am eager to learn something new and look beyond what I do in my job but I must be able to understand a product from an admin's point of view within a (very) few hours.
