[Dovecot] Remote resources in kde-pim
For some time I have been using dovecot to serve imap mail on my LAN. Now I want to add my diary and addressbook in kde-pim. I have got the docs from the kde site, but they talk about cyrus, and I'm not able to translate some bits of the instructions into dovecot ones. For instance,
"At cyrus level (in the PC that runs IMAP server cyrus, with cyrus tools), we first need to add the user mary, so it's an IMAP recognised user, and create an IMAP folder for her"
Can anyone give me a kickstart on this?
On the server box I can see the dimap calendar resource and addressbook resource, so I now need to be able to tell it to allow certain users to access it. This is where I'm coming unstuck, and it looks as though no-one on the kde-pim list has done this with dovecot.

Dunno exactly, I tried it once for a colleague, but don't use it myself:
- enter KMail
- Create an Identity that can login into IMAP successfully
- Configure KMail | Misc | Groupware 3a) Enable IMAP resource functionality 3b) configure the remaining stuff on the dialogue
The information is saved as messages in special IMAP mail folders, so the ability to login into IMAP is essential.
I'm not sure, I think you need to do something in KOrganizer, e.g. pull in some remote calendar "IMAP", too.
