[Kolab-devel] [issue2992] distlist MIME-types mismatch between horde and toltec

[Mike Gabriel]

New submission from Mike Gabriel <m.gabriel at das-netzwerkteam.de>:

as discussed on the kolab-devel mailing list, there is an incompatibility
problem between the horde distlist code and the toltec distlist handling:

the kolab format demands this MIME type for distlists (as implemented 
in the new horde code fragments):
application/x-vnd.kolab.distribution-list

toltec uses this MIME type... (??? this is not kolab xml format compliant !!!)
application/x-vnd.kolab.contact.distlist

additionally, toltec adds another attachment of the MIME type:
application/x-outlook-tnef

after decoding both toltec base64 encoded attachments, it seems like 
the first (application/x-vnd.kolab.distribution-list) is fully kolab 
xml format compliant (apart from the MIME type), and the latter adds 
some binary stuff that helps to implement the full outlook address 
book / distlist functionality into the kolab IMAP storage system.

for further info refer to the kolab-devel thread:

there also is a discussion on this going on on the kolab-format list (no URL,
sorry).
