AW: [Kroupware] announcing OpenPKG 2.0 with kolab-20040217-2.0.0available on ZfOS

Thu Feb 26 13:42:47 CET 2004

Hi Ronny,

Did this used to work on the previous versions of Kolab?

Toltec is suppossed to be able to encode special folder names into something
that can be saved on Cyrus IMAP.

As we are using a new version of Cyrus IMAPd this might be a new issue...

Kind regards,
Stephan Buys
