It is advisable to plan ahead if users are already defined and have content in their mail boxes. With installation, new imap accounts will be created, but old content will not be transfered to new folder structure. The tool imapcopy is handy to move users's content to a temporary imap server, and restored the same way after installation.

Shared folders

 

==Shared folders==

With this installation (without Toltec Connector), sharing folders is done from the server-manager. Creating a folder and assigning access rights allows for other users and groups to see the account. EGroupware, Thunderbird, Outlook work with this. But note that Outlook will interfere with other clients with its character coding for languages like french.
