Thanks for replying. I have had IMAP mail for some time, but to get the resources working I need, apparently, to be able to log in as Groupware to access the shared resources.
On the server I added sections to dovecot.conf and postfix main.cf as described in HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL. In KMail, on the client, I used 'See what the server supports' and set it to TLS + clear text. I don't appear to be getting a rejection, but the resources are not being read.

Hmm, I'd say that postfix has nothing to do with it. If you want to have postfix authentificate from the same Database as Dovecot, you need it, but otherwise I do not see no relation. Or do you installed some script, that checks mails for Groupware-related ones and act upon them immediately?
I cannot help you with Postfix.
For shared resources you'll need yet another, shared account or look into the ACL plugin. KOrganizer even supports imap URLs natively, I saw right now.

I really want the simplest possible design. I have created an account on the
server called groupware. I've created a dimap account (in kmail on the
client) called groupware and given it the password for the user groupware.
When I found that I got rejections I read such docs as I found, and they
seemed to say that I must have sasl working. The docs on the kde site say
that I need
in dovecot.conf: auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } socket listen { client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private.auth mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } } and in postfix's main.cf
smtp_sasl_type = dovecot smtp_sasl_path = private/auth smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination
I've done that, but it doesn't work. It looks as though I have to set up a
password database, but I'd really like it to simply use the login database.
I'm out of my depth here.

OK, what I've seen this should be enough, because IMAP is just the storage backend in this scenario.

Do you get the rejections from SMTP, e.g. when you "invite" people to an appointment and these mails are sent as user groupware?
How about to setup KMail-Account "groupware" to sent as yourself? Just the access to the shared Groupware data via IMAP is then handled with the shared "groupware" user. Would be better, too, if someone is going to abuse this account or got trojan/virus infected.
