Installation and Upgrades / Ebox 1.4 Clean install - cannot log into egroupware

« on: March 22, 2010, 05:32:05 pm »

Hi,

I have completed a clean installation of Ebox 1.4. I have two servers setup as a master (ldap) and a slave. The slave is correctly registered with the master.

I have enabled egroupware and setup a test email account for my user. However when I attempt to login to egroupware at mySlaveIp/egroupware and give it the correct username and password I cannot login and get a bad login or password error.

I have tried disabling egroupware and mail and enabling them again, adding new users to the master and attempted to log in as that user - but I still get the same error.

Has anyone encountered this?

Thanks,
James

Installation and Upgrades / EGroupware and iPhone

« on: January 22, 2010, 05:54:57 pm »

Hi all,

I am able to receive email directly from ebox on my iPhone mail client and it works great. I am running ebox 1.3.12 on egroupware 1.6.001. Is it possible to synchronise my contacts and calendar with iPhone also? I see that iPhone only supports LDAP for importing contacts so maybe this wont work. Does the synthesis application (http://www.egroupware.org/index.php?page_name=Sync&wikipage=SyncMLSynthesis) work with egroupware 1.6.001?

Has anyone got contacts and calendar syncing with iPhone?

Also has anyone made their egroupware web email site available outside their intranet? If so what is the recommended setup from a security perspective? i.e. ISA server, port forwarding etc.

On a related note I see that ebox has a ebox-webmail module that includes roundcube. What is the reason for including a web based email client when egroupware appears to do the same thing?

Thanks and best regards,
James

Installation and Upgrades / Email signatures in egroupware

« on: January 13, 2010, 01:30:28 pm »

Hi,

Just wondering if it is possible to define an email signature in egroupware?
In the new email screen there is a combo box that allows me to pick either none or system signature. Where can I create my own? There is no option to do this in email preferences.

I am running ebox 1.3.10 on egroupware 1.6.001.

Thanks and best regards,

Installation and Upgrades / €uro Symbol and Email

« on: December 04, 2009, 11:30:56 am »

Hi,

First off thanks for all the hard work in developing ebox. I am looking forward to 1.4 and the new features it has to offer.

I am having a few small and annoying problems though on 1.3.9.
1. The euro symbol does not display correctly in email. In its place I get a ? I know that egroupware offers different options for setting the character set but from past experience changing these options broke our installation. What is the best way of supporting the euro symbol?

2. I have two email aliases. One is the default for the virtual mail domain I setup and the other is my work email address. How can I change the default email address in egroupware so that each time I send an email I dont have to manually change the email address to my work one?

3. My final question is to do with IMAP. I have attempted to access my ebox email using Thunderbird over IMAP. I have IMAP enabled on ebox but Thunderbird times out when I attempt to connect to it. Is this an known issue or this there some other means to enable this?

Any help on the above would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
James
