Calendar and address book with Dovecot

[mimicafe at gmail.com]

Firstly I need to look at various available options to determine which way
to go. However, our clients including Windows machine, Mac, Android and
iOS. To the best of my knowledge, all the clients support the various
protocols except LDAP which may not be supported on mobile devices.

A quick search for suggested "groupware" showed a number of implementation
I could look at.


Thanks

Mimi
