[Dovecot] Recommended Groupware?
Hi,
is there a recommended groupware (email + calendar + address book + syncing with mobile devices) on top of an existing dovecot installation?
Most existing commercially supported groupwares come with their own mail storage engine. I would like to keep dovecot as the email storage engine because of the maildir format which greatly helps with backup & restore.
Regards

Hello.
We extensively use horde-{groupware/webmail/etc} for us and our clients with really good success. you can even integrate it with LDAP to have calendar availability and such. Integrates very well with lighting even if you're using a "heavy" client (such as thunderbird/icedove/whatnot)
The best part of horde it's that is totally independent of your MDA and MTA solutions, but of course, we prefer to run it over postfix+dovecot. a real performance winner.
HTH.

Someone already suggested horde/imp, and that is probably the best free solution. For a partially free but mostly proprietary solution (all java based), you can check out Open-Xchange, as it does everything you mention (and more), and integrates fine with dovecot in "standard" ways (IMAP quotas, sieve rules including "vacation"), which is really nice.
