[Kde-pim] Ubuntu 8.04: Kontact missing IMAP Groupware Objects and actions - SOLVED

[Markus Feilner]

Hi,
for anybody who has noticed the same problem in Kontact/Kmail with IMAP 
Groupware storage, I have included the following guideline to my blog.
Here is my description, any comments/suggestions are welcome.

This applies to KDE 3.5.9, the enterprise branch is not affected.

Solving Problem with KDE Kontact (missing IMAP Groupware folders)
May 17, 2008

(Just short, a long version of this tech tipp will come soon.)

If your KDE Kontact Groupware Client is suddenly missing IMAP Addressbooks, 
other GW ressources and dialogues, then add the 
line "TheIMAPResourceAccount=" to the [Imap Ressource] Section of the file 
kmailrc in ~/.kde/share/config. Enter the Identifier of your IMAP Storage 
behind the "=", you'll find it in the same section. Here comes an example 
from my files:

[IMAP Resource]

HideGroupwareFolders=false

TheIMAPResourceAccount=1004672513

TheIMAPResourceEnabled=true

TheIMAPResourceFolderLanguage=1

TheIMAPResourceFolderParent=.1004672513.directory/.INBOX.directory/Groupware

The Developer Team knows about this bug, and they are working on it - I guess.

Here (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdepim/+bug/139433) you'll 
find the bugreport. Sadly, I found out that this applies to Suse, Ubuntu and 
other Linux versions since late 2007.
