Dekko 2 account settings

guru

I spent some time glancing through the sources but could not find the way the account setup is written.

It's a pitty that the original developer can not help for whatever reason and no one else is giving a talk or a workshop, for example via webEx, to get others to speed.

@guru Maybe you missed this but plans are underway for Dekko2 with a hackathon next weekend https://forums.ubports.com/topic/2645/dekko2-hackathon-one-week-to-go

I've heard about it , but did not see any agenda or content. Will this be recorded or live streamed. My problem is, that I have had already compromised my participation in a Ramadama in an association and would need (for me) good reasons to cancel this.

For info, seen on gitlab, we can see dekko 2 issues which should be addressed during hackaton :
For example :

Please keep in mind: that doesn't mean all of them will be fixed. Just created a board and suggested some issues. 'Even if we only got a handful finished, I would be happy.' (thx Nicholas for lenting me your words ^^)

guru

Apart of fixing certain issues, what IMHO is most necessary is an architecture overview of the dekko processes/threads (as a schema) and of the source tree where's what piece of code. Is this planned?

With Thunderbird on Ubuntu 16.04LTS, there's an add-on to connect to MS Exchange servers, with which I could connect successfully. Now, I see that the server ID includes the ews path, of the form exchange.company.com/ews/something.aswx
I didn't try yet with Dekko2, do you think that might work?

guru

No idea. Is this something via evolution backend? I do connect to my Exchange mailbox via IMAP and SMTP which works fine, appart of calendar invitations. Sorry, but I'm not a M$ expert.

@guru said in Dekko 2 account settings:

I connect to Microsofts servers via IMAP and SMTP to read my mails of my company Exchange server. The connect details are:
imaps://username@company.com@pod51010.outlook.com/INBOX
smtp://username@company.com@pod51010.outlook.com:587

Hi, I come back to your previous message. Are you connecting to the Exchange server with Dekko2, or with the web browser? If it is with Dekko2, I guess that the ingoing mail settings should be:
Server name: pod51010.outlook.com
Username: username@company.com
Port: (443 ?)
Security: SSL/TLS ?

And, as far as the outgoing mail settings are concerned,
Server name: pod51010.outlook.com
Username: username@company.com
Port: 587
Security: SSL/TLS

Is this correct?

Well, I enventually succeeded to connect to the account (although I had tried the same config. before without success).
But I just get the list of messages but the messages are empty (except for attachments)

guru

What have you configured in Display Settings?

The same config works in my BQ M10FHD with the old Dekko.
