Outlook plugin with dovecot - outlook-addin

I am trying to get a plugin made for outlook that will do out of office with dovecot as its backend using a sieve. Can anyone advise how the plugin will need to logi on the linux box to write to the users sieve file. AS the mailserver connects to Active Directory,there is no local users created. All users are from ad and cant log on the linux box itself.
Cheers for the advise.

Light weight add on not installing on client machine

I have deployed a light weight add-on through extension manager for SAP 9.2, in the server the add-on is installed and works as expected. But in client machine, the add-on is not getting installed.
I tried all of these,
Un-assign and re-assign the add-on to the company
Check the SAP
Client agent is running
Remove the AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo and AddOnsInstall.sbo files
Check company/server
Set add-on as mandatory
We have 2 add-on's that uses ARD instead of extensions to register and these add-on's are installing correctly without any issues.
I have even tried to copy the add-on folder and the AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo from server to local and surprisingly found that SAP is uninstalling the addon when i log in. Users are using SSO to sign in to SAP B1.
This is an issue in SAP. Note: 2467361
Symptom
In your SAP Business One application, you have enabled single sign-on and you have assigned several lightweight add-ons using the Extension Manager. After you bind a SAP Business One user with a Microsoft Windows account, the lightweight add-ons disappear from the Add-On Manager.
Cause
Application error
Make sure that the AddOns folder has full rights for everyone to read/write.
Change this under Properties->Security->Edit
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns

Can I Show Windows Authentication Dialog When Trying To Connect To Un-Authenticated Network Path

In my application, it allows users to remotely connect computers and folders within the internal network for troubleshooting, etc.
My problem is that some of these computers that they are trying to connect to haven't yet been authenticated for them, so when I plug the UNC path into a new process for explorer, it doesn't error but simply returns some random local folder (My Documents I think).
My question is... Is there a way I can make a call to the windows authentication dialog to allow the user to authenticate against the remote PC? If the user simply enters the same address into a normal explorer window, the authentication screen will appear, however, using my app it doesn't.
Is there anyway I can force this to show up for the user?
Any help appreciated, thanks.

Prompting for network credentials in VB.NET
You can have a look at CredUIPromptForCredentials API, in vb.net, just P/Invoke it. For more information:

There is one more way to authenticate the user.I tried running the ODBC commands for active directory and it worked.Please add your thoughts on it if you know some other way of doing it.Thanks,Tausif.

Sharepoint 2010 user not found error

I am getting this error when I try to do the following:
accessing a library settings
accessing a workflow settings
accessing a list settings
accessing a task settings
p.s.
I'm using SharePoint 2010 on Windows Server 2008 64-bit
I am using an Administrator account.
I recently installed the Active Directory on the server
Regrds
Check the workflows. Browse to the site, and Edit in SharePoint Designer. If you click on the workflows, there may be one there that was created by a user that no longer exists, or a local user that is not in AD. Save and republish each of them, and you will probably be allright. Bumped into this when our SP admin got married, and her account changed.
A long term solution would be to have a functional account that is not tied to an individual be the login that publishes all of the workflows. Each workflow runs as the user that publishes it, so any account changes can break a workflow.

Error Trying to Save from Excel to Sharepoint Library

I am trying to save an Excel 2010 file to a Sahrepoint 2010 document library but keep getting the error:
"You can't open this location using this program. Please try a different location"
Googling this suggests enabling "Desktop Experience" on the server which I have done. All Excel services are activated.
Has anyone come across this and been able to resolve successfully? I am wondering if this is more security related but the security set-up looks fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I think that there are potentially a couple of things that could solve this problem depending on your set-up.
You are right that a lot of internet advice is to enable desktop experience, but if you are not running on the server or if you have already done this then one of the suggestions below could help.
This is only for dev environments however.
If you are running on the server and trying to use your app as admin then configuring IE ESC to turn off enhanced security for Admins should help
If you are running off server and have the issue and do not want to turn off IE ESC (on the server) for users then you need to enable a mechanism to allow auto-logon, either through integrated security (i.e. you are part of the domain), accessing through an anon web-site port on your SharePoint app (set-up anon web access in SharePoint) or set up and store a WebDav link and use that as the open/save URL.
My (unconfirmed) theory is that there is some auto-login going on in the background that hinders a streamlined office integration. Most of the time, SharePoint will be set up with Kerberos (not NTLM) or be in anon mode so enabling desktop experience if running on the server will be the best first step to try.
Hope this helps.
The problem is that the full path to the file is too long.
I had this problem with a PowerPoint presentation. The full path to the file was over 275 characters. When I shortened the file name to bring the full path under 250 characters, I was able to open the file normally.
