The Toltec" Connector is middleware that enables Microsoft Outlook to use an IMAP4 server while still using the functionality of the "Corporate or Workgroup" mode instead of "Internet Only" mode.
Version 2 of this product introduces support for the Kolab-XML format that allows other clients to inter operate with the Toltec" Connector. Currently
KDE Kontact (Proko2 Branch) supports the new format and support is being added to the
Horde web client.
All purchased Toltec" Connector v1.0 License Keys are valid for version 2.0 and no upgrade fee is payable.
If you currently do not have a License Key, please visit our
Free Trial page.
Kolab 2
The new version of the Toltec" Connector was developed using the new Kolab 2 groupware server.
Information and documentation about the Kolab 2 server and the Email clients can be found on the Kolab WIKI.
