DavMail support

[mkszuba]

Hello,

Does the current version of org-caldav support DavMail? On one hand it is not mentioned either way in the README, on the other there is one mention of it in the .el file itself. As for me, so far I have been unsuccessful getting it going.

My set-up: emacs-24.3 running under Linux, org-mode as bundled with said version of Emacs, org-caldav cloned from master this morning. Relevant bit of .emacs:

(require 'org-caldav)
(setq org-caldav-url "https://caldav.company.com/users/my.user@company.com")
(setq org-caldav-calendar-id "calendar")
(setq org-caldav-uuid-extension ".EML")
(setq org-caldav-inbox "~/org/remote.org")

Upon running org-caldav-sync I immediately get asked for my user name (which again is my.user@company.com) and password. The connection then fails with the following error message:

Got error status from PROPFIND: 
(("https://caldav.company.com/users/my.user@company.com/calendar/" DAV:status 401 . ""))

Emacs having trouble authenticating the connection properly? BTW. If I try to connect to the same calendar using Mozilla Thunderbird + Lightning (in which case I combine url and calendar-id into a single URL), everything works fine.

Actually your username is probably "Domain\user".

  (setq org-caldav-url "http://localhost:1080/users"
           org-caldav-calendar-id "my.user@example.com/calendar"
           org-caldav-uuid-extension ".EML")

• user: DOMAIN\LOGIN
• password: You're windows domain\login password

I can confirm it works, but:

• The server comes up with it's own IDs, so you get duplicated events; this could be solved by org-caldav maybe by comparing the body and merging them.
• Events coming from other users will be read-only, but org-caldav assumes it can modify them, which means they stay forever dirty and isn't easy to revert.
• Sensitiveness to white-space changes causes a lot of unnecessary syncs.
