I've mostly got our dovecot+postfix+SOGo+openldap open source
groupware replacement working the way I want it to; we're replacing
GroupWise in our organization and I'm thrilled to be doing it. I'm
supporting about 1,000 active staff users (and another 6,000 student
accounts).
I've got e-mail and calendar sharing working, and it does what it
says it will do, but it is (go figure) different in concept from
Proxy access under GroupWise. In GroupWise, I can give my secretary
proxy access to my account and she can read all of my folders, see my
calendars, and send e-mail as me. To someone that receives an e-mail
or appointment request from her while she's proxied to me, there's no
distinction at all.
Is there a way to mimic this sort of functionality with the tools
I've chosen? I've figured out that I can add additional 'mail'
attributes to the secretary's record, and those addresses are
available as drop-down choices in the SOGo web interface, but with
the secretary's name and not the manager.
Any advice will be much appreciated.
And many thanks to the developers involved for writing and making
available such amazingly good software. Eliminating the license fees
we've been paying to Novell is allowing me to save a technician that
surely would have been eliminated in budget cuts this year.
Have two passwords, a secretary one and your real one. When you want to
give your secretary access, change it to the secretary password. To
revoke, change back.
(I know nothing about SOGo, so this is my brute force suggestion should
no one provide a more intelligent one.)
