dovecot - Aug 2017 - Aw: Dovecot - Postfix Calender Synchronisation

I still find impediments to the adoption of any of those "solutions".
Too many software dependencies, like PHP, DB, python, and a virtual machine. ---
There are two portable file formats for calendar and contacts that work across
applications and systems, but no server that can use them, and use them safely.

want a calendar, you probably want a CalDav server or a Microsoft ActiveSync
compatible server. There are various solutions out there, I know of caldav
servers and libraries from sabredav.io, calendarserver.org, agendav.org,
davical.org, radicale.org and bedework at apereo.org If you want a more
integrated solution there is open-xchange (dovecot company is part of), sogo.nu,
kolab.org, obm.org, horde, citadel, zimbra, zarafa While I have not tried all of
those, I can recommend sogo.nu. I have not tried all of the above, and when I
evaluated some of them (back then in 2012/13), some did not meet our
expectations concerning speed, ease of setup/administration and stability. But
things might have changed of course. Hope this helps, infoomatic

You will need however a database to store them. Could be SQL or IMAP ( 
as in kolab)

And a server. If the server is Apache/nginx it will use php to extract 
them from database. I can't say there are too many dependencies, because 
the vaste majority of web applications around use the same
stack.

We murdered web applications with a chainsaw. Web 2.0 has too many security
holes.
