CPIP connector for IMP 3.0

Hi all! Thank you very much for putting up Luminis Developer Network Site. This rocks.

As IMP is popular mail client i am pretty sure there will be some one outthere who have already integrated imp 3.0 in luminis portal. I would like to know there input how easy its to integrate with luminis & to write cpip connector.

Thank you.

I would love to know if someo

I would love to know if someone has done this.  We plan to do this in the near future as the built in mail client is less than adequate.  We can't switch to MUA, or Outlook Web(III.3) because we run an U of Washington mail server which our sys admin is 100% tied to.

I think with the decoupling they've done to allow these other web mail clients, it should be *fairly* simple to seemlessly integrate an alternate client.

I intend to ask some questions a long this line of some people at Summit.

Thoughts?

We started to

We got the cpip connector working. Using the http client via java to start the session, grab the cookies, and push to the end user. The stopper was the address book. Imp has it's own, and it seemed like a lot of work to get the address book to map over into Imp(turba). When someone composes an email from within group studio and chooses the "Address" button, it brings up the internal address book. It will be interesting to see how the outlook client interoperates with this function.

We ended up making the Luminis client work by creating a separate imap daemon running on a non-standard port with "/$home/mail" set as the starting folder. We are working on a process to auto subscribe users to all their folders, as IMP was set to show all folders.

Most imap clients let you set subscribe/show all and also let you choose your starting mail folder, but not the Luminis email client.

We wanted to go to IPlanet client but were never told we had to use IPlanet email server until our test install.

David,

When you say "creating a separate imap daemon running on a non-standard port with "/$home/mail" set as the starting folder", do you mean you rebuild imapd to start there, or do you mean you found a way to configure the Luminis client to start there? We have the exact same problem, btw.

We rebuild the imap daemon

We rebuild the imap daemon from source.

YaleCAS

Anyone know if YaleCAS support will find its way into Luminis IV?  uPortal compatibility seems to exist.

I mention this because of the phpCAS project which should make it simple to add CAS support to anything/everything in the Horde framework since this is all PHP.

If anyone has already integrated YaleCAS or plans to in Luminis III, I'd love to hear about it.

YaleCAS support in Luminis

Check out the Answer ID: 1084 SCTsupport documentation about integrating YALE CAS in Luminis III.2.
I would also love to hear Yalecas-Luminis intergration efforts.

How do I install and configure Luminis to work with Yale CAS enabled systems?
Answer
Central Authentication Service (CAS) is a
methodology developed by Yale University that facilitates single signon
across multiple Web applications so that users do not have to overtly
log in to services that they access. The Luminis III.2 system can be
integrated with existing CAS services so that users who log in to
Luminis initiate CAS sessions.

Please see the attached installation and configuration guide for details.

I've been looking at integrat

I've been looking at integrating Luminis & IMP, and haven't found much specifically for Luminis. I did find something close as a uPortal channel, which can be customized... http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~bruce/uportal/horde.html

Any thoughts?
