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.

Step-by-step configuration

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

  • User Name: your full email address
  • Password: password of your email account
  • Server Address: https://[server name or IP address]/SOGo/dav/[your full email address]

That's all.
