<p>DavMail Calendar support is now available, tested with Thunderbird/Lightning and Apple iCal.
This should also work with other Caldav clients.
</p>
<subsection name="Create a new network calendar">
<p>Obviously, you need to install the Thunderbird Lightning extension. You can
then create a new network calendar:
</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">
<img src="images/thunderbirdCalendar1.png" alt=""/>
</div>
<p>Choose CalDav format and specify location (adjust port to your settings):</p>
<code>http://localhost:1080/users/mail@company.com/calendar
</code>
<p>Replace mail@company.com with actual user email address.
</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">
<img src="images/thunderbirdCalendar2.png" alt=""/>
</div>
<p>Choose a name, color and set the associated email address (as set in mail setup).
</p>
<p>Note that Caldav notifications will not work if this email address field is empty.</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">
<img src="images/thunderbirdCalendar3.png" alt=""/>
</div>
<p>Provide your credentials, login is Active Directory account name, i.e. domain\account
or email address with Exchange 2007
</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">
<img src="images/thunderbirdCalendar4.png" alt=""/>
</div>
<p>Finish:
</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">
<img src="images/thunderbirdCalendar5.png" alt=""/>
</div>
<p>Lightning mail notifications are broken, activate Caldav notifications to outbox instead.
Make sure calendar.caldav.sched.enabled is true in Thunderbird advanced settings.
</p>
<p>You may want to enable the (experimental) Lightning calendar cache feature to avoid
the possibly long calendar load task delay on Thunderbird startup: double click
on the calendar in Lightning left pane and activate cache. Restart Thunderbird.
