calendar on imap folder through kmail does't work

Hi
I'm using latest kde3.4 from kde-redhat repository on centos3.4
I'm trying to use calendar stored in a imap folder though kmail.
This feature is great because I have imap mail hosted on the internet for free. IMAP also is fast and scalable I think.

I've setup the whole thing, and when I add events or todos, it just says 'unable to save event ...'. But I can see in the imap folder that the event is there.
When restarting kontact, the event were effectively not stored.

Can anyone help?

Does anyone knows a free calendar hosting service that is compatible with kdepim? web interface or outlook compatibility is better since I don't have kde at home. (only at work)

Thanks

Maybe some locking problem.

Unless some other user here has experience with this kind of setup, I'd suggest you ask on the kdepim-users mailinglist.

And if you got an answer there is would be nice if you could post it here as well :)

Hi

I posted to the mailing list.
Seems that imap calendar store feature works only with disconnected imap since kde 3.4.
Tested it and seems to work.

Where is the disconnected imap feature documented? Is the only difference is that the disconnected imap does like pop? I mean fetch the mails and disconnect?

Not quite like POP.
It synchronizes the local store with the one on the IMAP server.
So you can for example delete messsages while not being connected and it will delete them in the server next time it syncs.
