#DAVMAIL WITHOUT GATEWAY UPGRADE#

This is what the user prefs look like after doing that in 2.0.0.23:Ĭode: Select all user_pref('ldap_2.', true) Tested successfully with the Iphone (gateway running on a server). Releases are tested on Windows, Linux (Ubuntu) and Mac OSX. Home Internet Utilities Email Servers DavMail. So the moral of this story is to test your LDAP server with Search, not Offline/Download. DavMail gateway is implemented in java and should run on any platform. It turns out that the Search function does try for password authentication, while the download does not. However, the 3.0b4 failure to display results made me wonder if it had something to do with the 100 item retrieval limit (I was using the Offline/Download function, since that was the nearest available UI element that provoked Thunderbird into talking to the LDAP gateway), and that got me to try the Search function, to see if the behavior was different without running into the limits.

Going back to 2.0.0.23, though, it goes back to using anonymous authentication again. User_pref('ldap_2.', 'Global Address Book') I note that using 3.0b4, creating an LDAP directory manages to bind successfully (though none of the things I see coming back on the DavMail trace show up in the UI), and leaves the following preferences in my prefs.js:Ĭode: Select all user_pref('ldap_2.', '') If Thunderbird is capable of using non-anonymous authentication at all, I would hope that editing prefs.js to tell it to do so would be easier than hacking DavMail.

Thunderbird 102 Released: A Serious Upgrade to Your Communication. We have used some of these posts to build our list of alternatives and similar projects. The LDAP 'server' is a gateway provided by DavMail, and JXplorer already shows that it works if I just use user+password authentication. Posts with mentions or reviews of davmail.
