Hello everybody,

I am trying to set up groupware functionality for my GMail account. As someone 
described in an earlier post, I set up the account as disconnected IMAP, 
enabled groupware in Kmail, and now have the (empty) folders calendar, 
contacts, etc., showing up. My question is: How to tell Kmail to store my 
contacts, calendars, feeds etc there?
In the kalendar component, there is the possibility to add a new resource, and 
I picked "calendar on IMAP server via Kmail" (or similar, I am using the 
german version). But when doing so, the field where I expect some 
configurations (server, login, password, etc...) remains blank. Is this a 
known bug, or is there some workaround?
When it comes to my contacts, I don't even see how to add an address book 
which is not stored locally. (I see an option to "save contact in ...", but 
when I select it, nothing happens) 

Am I missing something here or are these features just not complete yet? Or is 
it a problem with the packages I'm using (Kubuntu 7.10, KDE 3.5.6, Kontact 
1.1, KMail 1.9.6, KOrganizer 3.5.6) ?

Has someone successfully set up something like this using GMail? Or maybe 
someone has a suggestion of a better free option to do this (For example, 
folder names seem to be restricted in GMail)  - any help appreciated.

Best,
Gandalf
