So, if you have to have LDAP with opensuse, why have another addressbook database? If I forget about kdepim and Akonadi and use LDAP I an use either Thunderbird or KMail (or Evolution or Outlook or ....).
What if I don't want to use Kmail? What if the mailhub machine I access using IMAP does its own indexing out there?
akonadi is *not* a new addressbook implementation. It is a cache, for all sorts of PIM data. The idea is that all applications on a system uses it, for faster data transfer and less configuration, but it is in itself *not* an address book, email storage etc. This is straight from the documentation http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/PIM/Akonadi#Where_does_Akonadi_store_my_dat... You can use akonadi with an LDAP address book Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
