Uploading is not needed anymore IMHO. But what about downloading via the 
legacy FTP mechanism used in Kolab1? I have OL 2K clients which seem to 
have problems with authenticated HTML downloads of the FB data. I.e. if I 
use a FTP URL like ftp://user:passwd@server/path , the clients can access 
the server. Using html://user:passwd@server/path OL can't access that 
information although using exactly the same URL in IE gives a passwd dialog 
and downloads the data.
Well, the mess in on M$ side. But what's the solution to handle that problem 
with Kolab 2?

Best regards,
Andreas
