Normal IMAP.

The documentation for this is very hard to find.

I can't find any mention of IMAP on
http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdepim/korganizer/index.html
I finally found something on
http://docs.kde.org/userguide/kontact-imap-clients.html
but this should at least be linked to from the Korganizer handbook.


If IMAP doesn't work, why doesn't kmail just tell me "hey man, it
won't work" in a way or another? Why does it let me chose this account
as a groupware server?

Please, please, please, either make korganizer *work* over IMAP, or
*prevent* people from using it. But this thing working just
"sometimes" is a real pain.


I'm giving a try to cached IMAP. It seems to work.

BTW, is there any reason why cached IMAP can't work as a write-through
mirror? That is: read operations are cached, but write operations are
done immediately. I'm OK with a "cached" IMAP, but this is much more a
"disconnected" IMAP where I have to do a full synchro to upload the
modifications I made to my calendar. And by the way, korganizer still
gives me a "save" button, which seems to be just a no-op. That's very
missleading.

Anyway, thanks for your help, and sorry for those complaints ;-).
