I was able to get everything working including activesync with Sogo Sync.
Still, in my opinion, its a poor alternative to a MS Exchange.
But its free, so its worth giving it a shot.

After evaluating sogo, I can truly say its a garbage alternative to outlook.

Sorry to hear that.

Thanks for sharing.

In anycase, in step5 SOGoUserSources of the tutorial the sogod command needs to use md5 instead of sha.
sha will not work!!!

defaults write sogod SOGoUserSources '({canAuthenticate = YES; displayName = "SOGo Users"; id = users; isAddressBook = YES; type = sql; userPasswordAlgorithm = md5; .. .. . . . .. . . .  (put the rest of his code here to match your password).

After evaluating sogo, I can truly say its a garbage alternative to outlook.
Both Group-Office / Tine2 have done a way better job with carddav, caldav, and even activesync!!!

I can officially confirm that the instructions do not work, and the user is not able to login.
Before you mentioned that it might be something SogoUsing Plain MD5 while you use MD5 Salt. 
Is there a way to make Iredmail use plain md5 also?

Frank

can i replace the whole IredAdmin (open source) when upgrading to 8.0?
what is the procedure for upgrading the admin

Sure. Just point the symbol link (/var/www/iredadmin) to the new version, but don't forget to set correct file owner (iredadmin:iredadmin) and permission (0700).
The permission of config file, settings.ini, should be 0400.

Where is libs/settings.py?

It exists in the iRedAdmin (open source edition) shipped in iRedMail-0.8.0.

iRedMail hashes password in salted MD5 in MySQL backend by default, but as far as i know, SOGo requires PLAIN MD5. So you cannot use existing passwords in SOGo directly.

No.

I cannot re-install from scratch.  Have to keep our existing MYSQL and a few other scripts.
What i have been doing is going back to snapshots, over and over agian.
As for Sogo i have no idea what is going on.  Just know the tutorial you had does not work with either 7 or 8.

And as for the admin passwords, it must be somewhere in the code where it chooses the encryption.
Will upgrade to pro resolve this issue?

1: Install a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
2: Install iRedMail-0.8.0 on Ubuntu 12.04. There's no patch needed in the iRedAdmin (open source edition) shipped in iRedMail-0.8.0, what you need to do is just setting default password scheme to PLAIN-MD5 in libs/settings.py, then restart Apache service.

SQL_DEFAULT_PASSWD_SCHEME = 'PLAIN-MD5'

3: Update /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf, set default_pass_scheme to 'PLAIN-MD5' (Reference):

default_pass_scheme = PLAIN-MD5

4: Create a new mail user with iRedAdmin, test Roundcube and SOGo with this newly created mail user.

Let me know whether it works for you or not.

There is a typo on the instructions found on:
http://www.wynni.com/iredmail-sogo-mysq … ntication/
the def getSQLPassword(p) function needs to have a dash between PLAIN & MD5
Corrected code below:  (at last i assume it is)

def getSQLPassword(p):
    #if SQL_DEFAULT_PASSWD_SCHEME == 'MD5':
     if SQL_DEFAULT_PASSWD_SCHEME == 'PLAIN-MD5':
         #return getMD5Password(p)
         return getPlainMD5Password(p)
     else:
         # PLAIN text.
         return p

Now Both Roundcube / Outlook are working correctly.
What remains broken:
1. Cannot login to SOGO
2. Cannot login with any admin other than postmaster into the IRedMail admin site.

First:
Installed iRedMail on Ubuntu 11 with MySQL backend.
Everything went as planned.
Imap working, SQL storing un / passwords.

Next:
Updated 7.4 to 8.0 based on instructions
http://iredmail.org/wiki/index.php?titl … .7.4-0.8.0

Next:
Updated Ubunto to 12.04 LTS
Tested IreadMail.  Everything still seems ok.

Next:
Installed SOGO as instructions found on this blog post:
http://www.wynni.com/iredmail-sogo-mysq … ntication/

Roundcube, No users can login.  (password error)
iRedAdmin - Newly created admins cannot login.
MySQL - passwords are stored as plain text.
Outlook - no longer can connect via IMAP.

Apache logs look ok.
Errors exist in dovecot log and mail.log

It seems like the instructions on the blog post do not work...
I am guessing that manually upgrading from 7.4 to 8.0 leaves some files missing.

I have added the following code to the iredutils.py file.
Do i need to upload anything else?

def getPlainMD5Password(p):
    p = str(p)
    try:
        from hashlib import md5
        return md5(p).hexdigest()
    except ImportError:
        import md5
        return md5.new(p).hexdigest()
        return p
