Mac OS X: Add contact service (CardDAV) in Contacts.app

Important notes:

SOGo provides EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) support, but not EWS (Exchange Web Service).

Outlook 2013 for Windows works well with EAS.

Below mobile devices works well with EAS, they will sync mails, calendars, contacts, tasks, memos/notes.

BlackBerry 10 devices

iOS devices (iPad, iPhone). Tested with iOS 8.1.3.

Apple Mail.app, and Outlook for Mac support EWS. But not EAS.

Outlook 2010 for Windows supports MAPI.

iRedMail-0.9.0 doesn't integrate OpenChange and Samba4 for native MAPI support, so SOGo groupware in iRedMail doesn't provide full support for Microsoft Outlook clients, Mac OS X Mail.app and all iOS devices, don't try to add your mail account as an Exchange account in these mail clients. You have to add separate POP3/IMAP account, caldav/carddav account instead.

Requirements

iRedMail-0.9.0 or later releases is required.
To use contact service (CardDAV protocol), you must choose to install SOGo groupware during iRedMail installation.

1: Open application System Preferences:

2: Click Internet Accounts:

3: on right panel, click Add Other Account at the bottom

4: choose Add a CardDAV account in popup window

5: Fill up the form with your server address and email account credential
