Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) Compiler: GCC 4.3.2 OS: Linux Installed from: Gentoo Packages I've been trying to get Kontact to work with my Zimbra contacts list. I added it as a network resource, using vcards. I can read them with no problem using http[s]://server/path/to/contacts.vcf or http[s]://server/path/to/contacts?fmt=vcf However, writing doesn't work. I captured the packets for an attempt at an http write. The .vcf version tries the correct URL, but Zimbra doesn't support writing to it. However, the ?fmt=vcf version shows that Kontact is POSTing to http://server/path/to/contacts without the query string, so Zimbra is interpreting the vcard as a CSV file. It returns 200 OK. Somewhere between Kontact and the code making the network request, the URL gets truncated, resulting in lots of empty contacts in Zimbra's list.
Using KDE SC 4.4 RC2, I can still read the address book using Akonadi's vcard file resource. "Read only" is check and greyed out, though. Is there any way to make remote address books writable?
Thank you for your efforts you put into this bug. kab3 has long been deprecated, and so I close its old reports. If this bug/wish is still valid for kab3's successor kaddressbook in any recent version (5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08.0 or later), please file a new bug against kaddressbook.
