[kdepim-users] Understanding kmail imap resources

[Anne Wilson]

I've come to a dead end in getting imap resources to work.  The more I think 
about it, the less I'm convinced that I understand what's happening.  Where 
exactly does the server copy of the calendar and addressbook live?  I collect 
my mail as anne.  I followed instructions and set up an account as groupware.  
I did wonder whether I needed a user account and home directory for 
groupware - some said yes, others said no.  Besides, if that is where the 
resources live I would not have access to them from my login, would I?

Then I have heard that some people have it partially working, but that they 
don't see the whole calendar, for instance, just the changes since they set 
up imap resources.  Is this what is supposed to happen?

I expected that a server copy would exist that could be accessed from 
anywhere, as long as the account addressed kmail as 'groupware'.  Is this not 
what I'm going to achieve, even if I get it working?

I've spent a lot of time on this, and I need to know whether the end result is 
worth the effort.  If it is, I also need to know whether, for instance, my 
husband will be able to request imap as groupware and see my calendar?  It's 
a matter of ownership and permissions, I guess.
