DavMail (Exchange, Outlook)
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
DavMail_ is a proxy program that allows you to use Card- and CalDAV clients
|
|
with Outlook. That allows you to use vdirsyncer with Outlook.
|
|
|
|
In practice your success with DavMail may wildly vary. Depending on your
|
|
Exchange server you might get confronted with weird errors of all sorts
|
|
(including data-loss).
|
|
|
|
**Make absolutely sure you use the latest DavMail**::
|
|
|
|
[storage outlook]
|
|
type = "caldav"
|
|
url = "http://localhost:1080/users/user@example.com/calendar/"
|
|
username = "user@example.com"
|
|
password = ...
|
|
|
|
- Older versions of DavMail handle URLs case-insensitively. See :gh:`144`.
|
|
- DavMail is handling malformed data on the Exchange server very poorly. In
|
|
such cases the `Calendar Checking Tool for Outlook
|
|
<https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28786>`_ might
|
|
help.
|
|
- In some cases, you may see errors about duplicate events. It may look
|
|
something like this::
|
|
|
|
error: my_calendar/calendar: Storage "my_calendar_remote/calendar" contains multiple items with the same UID or even content. Vdirsyncer will now abort the synchronization of this collection, because the fix for this is not clear; It could be the result of a badly behaving server. You can try running:
|
|
error:
|
|
error: vdirsyncer repair my_calendar_remote/calendar
|
|
error:
|
|
error: But make sure to have a backup of your data in some form. The offending hrefs are:
|
|
[...]
|
|
|
|
In order to fix this, you can try the Remove-DuplicateAppointments.ps1_
|
|
PowerShell script that Microsoft has come up with in order to remove duplicates.
