<sigh>  I must be missing something.  I'm trying to get this working on the 
server box first, for simplicity.  I have created a user 'groupware' and 
given it a password, with a home directory in /usr/share/ (maybe that's 
wrong?).  I have created a kmail user 'groupware' and supplied its password.  
I now have an account called 'borg2 dimap', with sub-folders for Calendar, 
Contacts, Notes, Tasks and Journal, but no Inbox or any other mail folders.  
Is this correct?  If I enable timed checking I see 

The connection to the server borg2 DIMAP was unexpectedly closed or timed out. 
It will be re-established automatically if possible.

What have I missed?
