Usage

After implementing the .qmail fragment mail is sent to zarafa, and NOT the users ~\Maildir

Webmail

Access with browser for a local user

• http://serverip/zarafa

Windows Clients

• MS Outlook

• zarafaclient-*.msi contained in the win32 directory of zarafa-*.tar.gz

Imap & POP

UNTESTED

Start the service

/etc/init.d/zarafa-gateway start

Configure the client (what address/port ?)

Mobiles

UNTESTED

Install rpm, start service, configure

Issues

Backup

• Either change the install location of the mail stores so they are backed up, requires using rpm -Uvh with a switch, not yum
• Or document what directories to add to backups

.qmail fragment

• fragment now called .qmail/80Zarafa to allow for SME forwarding
• mailsorting contrib sorts to Maildir folders, zarafa won't see this mail
