I tried to play with ActiveSync, similar to iPhone, using Apple's iCal.  I could configure the 'Exchange' Account, but did not get a connection.  The Apache logs on the Kolab server tell me that iCal tries to connect to

"POST /EWS/Exchange.asmx HTTP/1.1" 404 382 "-" "Mac OS X/10.7.3 (11D50d); ExchangeWebServices/2.1 (125); iCal/5.0.2 (1571)"

not to the URL 'http://kolab.example.com/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync' as written on <http://wiki.kolab.org/Z_push>.  I manually tried to change the server URI to Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync in the iCal config, which then results in

"POST /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync HTTP/1.1" 401 728 "-" "Mac OS X/10.7.3 (11D50d); ExchangeWebServices/2.1 (125); iCal/5.0.2 (1571)"

but again without success.  The Z-Push logs do not show the access.  Manually opening the Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync URL in Iceweasel works.

I'm running Z-Push Version 1.5.2 (551) on Kolab 2.2.4.

Any help would be highly appreciated,
thanks in advance,

Albrecht.
