Hey,
for beeing able to auto configure the client, we should create a file at the
server to get most settings for the client. As base I used the Thunderbird
autoconfig file [1].
I added additional xml tags for ldapserver, freebusy and identities.
Some questions:
* should the file <http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig/mail/config-v1.1.xml> be extended?
pro: thunderbird can using the email part as well
* the identity part isn't defined in hunderbird autoconf [1], do you know any
configuration for that tag?
Different modes:
* requesting the file with auth basic -> fill out password etc.
* without login data -> return the file with %PASSWORD%, %USER%,...
Using other urlpaths:
http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig/kolab-v1.0.xml
or split everypart into an own file:
http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig/ldap/config-v1.0.xml
http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig/freebusy/config-v1.0.xml
http://example.com/.well-known/autoconfig/kolab/config-v1.0.xml
would be only a xmlfile that refers to the other parts.
Regads,
sandro
