[Kolab-devel] [issue2133] Kontact Enterprise rev. 728017: Kontact creates duplicated default groupware folders

[Gunnar Wrobel]

New submission from Gunnar Wrobel <p at rdus.de>:

Tested using cyradm with an account that has not been used with Kontact before:

demo2.pardus.de> cm INBOX/Kontakte                                               
                                                                               
                                             demo2.pardus.de> mboxcfg
INBOX/Kontakte /vendor/kolab/folder-type contact.default
                                                                               
                                             demo2.pardus.de> info
INBOX/Kontakte                                             
{INBOX/Kontakte}:
  condstore: false
  lastpop:  
  lastupdate: 24-Oct-2007 13:40:01 +0200
  partition: default
  size: 0
  folder-type: contact.default
                    
At this point we have a valid default groupware folder for contacts. Now
configure Kontact for this user for the first time and start Kontact. It will
create the default folders it requires:
                                                                               
                         demo2.pardus.de> lm                 
INBOX (\HasChildren)             INBOX/Kontakte (\HasNoChildren)  
INBOX/Calendar (\HasNoChildren)  INBOX/Notes (\HasNoChildren)     
INBOX/Contacts (\HasNoChildren)  INBOX/Tasks (\HasNoChildren)     
INBOX/Journal (\HasNoChildren)   
                                                                               
                                             demo2.pardus.de> info
INBOX/Contacts                                             
{INBOX/Contacts}:
  condstore: false
  lastpop:  
  lastupdate: 24-Oct-2007 13:41:07 +0200
  partition: default
  size: 0
  folder-type: contact.default
                                                                               
                                             demo2.pardus.de> info INBOX/Kontakte
{INBOX/Kontakte}:
  condstore: false
  lastpop:  
  lastupdate: 24-Oct-2007 13:40:01 +0200
  partition: default
  size: 0
  folder-type: contact.default

Now there are two folders marked with ".default"

This type of behavior disrupts other clients (e.g. Horde) and is in violation of
the Kolab format specification:

http://kolab.org/doc/kolabformat-2.0rc5-html/c154.html#AEN157

"There MUST NOT be two folders of a single type having the default subtype. E.g.
it is forbidden to have two folders of the type calendar with the subtype
default within one Kolab account."
