Select which address books to sync?
-
Hi,
I’m currently testing Kopano (nightly community version) with z-push/ActiveSync (as CardDAV is still not really working).
In my account, I’ve set up a second address book as an address archive.
My question is:
Is it possible to restrict this address book so that it won’t get synced via ActiveSync?Because, on my Samsung Android phone (using the Samsung ActiveSync implementation), all concacts from the second address book get mixed into the primary address book and the second address book is only available as a “group”.
Using this implementation, it is useless, as I don’t have the possibility to only see the contacts from the primary address book without the others.
In my old setup, using CardDAV (and DAVx5), I could select which address books I want to sync and they were visible as distinct address books…
Thank you!
Regards,

The default Android App is or was not able to differentiate between multiple addressbooks and the developer decided to merge all available addressbooks into one in the CardDAV backend.
New contacts are written to the primary addressbook (see config.php).It should be possible to split those by checking the device type and act accordingly.
I did create a branch and started working on it a bit but never finished it.
If you are interested, I am willing to look at it again.
Since the Z-Push repository is not getting any attention from Kopano right now, I forked on GitHub (for now)…
