How should we store contacts and calendar so they show up in email?

1

Don’t we expect that as you type into roundcube or MS Outlook, your contacts should appear across all your devices and email clients? Right now, I have to look up in my android phone the contact separately from Outlook and for when I use Roundcube.

My contacts are in my cellphone but not in OwnCloud or in MS Outlook.

I downloaded DroidDav to my cellphone. it looks like it’s all good, but still not showing up in OwnCloud, Outlook or in Roundcube.

I know that I AM THE ONE missing a step or 2. I just want to be able to sync contacts so that when I email, I have the contacts available in the email client, etc. Additionally, I’d love to send and receive meeting requests and they show up in Calendars.

What am I missing? What is the process?

ownCloud manages the contacts database, so any contact you enter on any device using a CardDAV application (or via the Exchange Active/Sync protocol — but I don’t use it so I’m not sure) should appear within ownCloud — if not, the contact wasn’t entered successfully. (Also, it may take time for your apps to synchronize – that’s up to the app.)

Nothing else is supported in Mail-in-a-Box today.
