  • Automatic sync is now only done when the interval time is elapsed, not on add, modify or delete.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.42 (Nov 18, 2015)

  • When using copy/paste items could be accidentally deleted. Fixed.
  • Tried to fix the problem that Outlook inserted "kopieren:" into the subject of appointments with an organiser or attendees.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.41 (Nov 2, 2015)

  • If a timezone definition is missing in the VCALENDAR entry, but a timezone is specified with the DTSTART or DTEND fields. cFos Outlook DAV now tries to convert this specification into a timezone name which is recognized by Outlook. This should fix timezone problems with web interfaces of owncloud and other services.

  • Fixed a crash, which occurred when an item was not on the server.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.39 (Aug 14, 2015)

  • Added experimental one way sync. If you prefix the CalDAV / CardDAV URL with a < character, the server always has priority. This has the effect, that items added changed locally are overwritten by the server. Also newly added items are not uploaded to the server and locally deleted items are restored on next sync by the item on the server.
  • Fixed a bug where the ORGANIZER field could be set to an illegal value.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.38 (Aug 14, 2015)

  • Items from server are now retrieved with HTTP GET, instead of HTTP REPORT. This should help addressbook sync with Synology.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.37 (Jul 25, 2015)

  • Due to problems with the ORGANIZER field in events, cFos Outlook DAV now only inserts an ORGANIZER if used with fastmail.fm. If an ORGANIZER field exists, it checks the email address in it and if it is not a valid email address (e.g. a MS Exchange link), it will be replaced by the email address you setup with your Outlook account.
  • Added a feature to dump certain items to the trace.txt file. If the Subject field of the calendar event or task item is $$cfos_dump$$ or the first name of the contact item is $$cfos_dump$$ then the item will be dumped to the trace.txt file, so you can see the actual contents synchronized with the server.
  • The "Sync Info" messagebox will now be closed automatically after 1 minute, if not closed manually.
  • Event / Todo subject or contact name will now written to trace.txt in case of a sync conflict.
  • Fixed a bug with handling of * in URL.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.36 (Jul 25, 2015)

  • cFos Outlook DAV uses your configured URL to try to detect the actual location of the calendar / address book. By prefixing your URL with a * you can suppress this behaviour. In this case cFos Outlook DAV then uses this URL exactly as specified. This should help with DAViCal bindings and in cases where you want to use a different calendar with gmx or web.de. Example URL: *http://www.cfos.de/calendars/mycalendar2.
  • Config file for the folder is now only created if you click "save" in the folder_setup dialog.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.35 (Jun 22, 2015)

  • Fixed folder_setup dialog again.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.34 (Jun 20, 2015)

  • DAViCal bindings are now ignored when determining the calendar / addressbook location.
  • Fixed a bug where using the config dialog created a 0 byte key file, resulting in "No Signature" error on next startup.

  • Fixed incorrect COMPLETED value to task items.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.32 (May 22, 2015)

  • Added support for gmx / web.de CardDav server.
  • Workaround for broken Synology Location header.

  • cFos Outlook DAV now tries to get the actual calendar home set / address book home set URL before the first request to the server.
  • Fixed handling of URLs with escaped characters.
  • Avoiding a bug in Microsoft's VSTO installer that prevented Outlook DAV from installing successfully and instead showed an error message like "Could not load file or assembly [...] VSTOInstaller.exe.Config line 10)"

  • Outlook line continuation problems are now corrected for addresses which contain line breaks.
  • You can now set the folder to manual sync only. Then only pressing the sync button will sync this folder. If you disable sync for a folder even the sync button will not trigger a sync for this folder.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.12 Beta (Mar 31, 2014)

  • The iCalender METHOD field is now removed when importing items, because it seems Outlook only supports METHOD:PUBLISH and throws exceptions on unknown METHODs.

  • Extended the free trial time. This version can be used until June 1, 2014.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.09 Beta (Mar 31, 2014)

  • Improved handling of items whose URL is changed by the server.
  • Items which don't have an Etag value are not deleted anymore.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.08 Beta (Mar 31, 2014)

  • Fixed a bug which caused problems when importing events/tasks with recurrence rules

  • In case of conflicts, the local version will be deleted and a dialog for the server version is opened, so you can check and update the item. While the dialog is open, no sync actions are taken for this item. This should also solve the problem of endless opening of new dialogs and duplication of items.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.06 Beta (Mar 31, 2014)

  • Added support for contacts. You can now synchronize Outlook contact folders with cFos Outlook DAV. Behaviour and setup are like appointment folders.
  • Outlook tasks are now flags as "all day long" so they look nicer in google calendar view.
  • folder_setup.hta now accepts the folder name as parameter, so it is automatically selected when invoked from the folder context menu.
  • cFos Outlook DAV can not automatically find the calender-home-set and/or the addressbook-home-set. You can now specify the base URL for your CalDAV/CardDAV server, if it supports auto-detection. For cFos Personal Net you can simply specify the root URL, e.g. http://mydomain.com or http://localhost.
  • Note: Due to problems with other CalDAV/CardDAV servers, this feature is now restricted to google CalDAV/CardDAV servers.
  • cFos Outlook DAV now displays a message box if it can't import an Outlook item.
  • trace.txt, trace_old.txt and the folder setup dialog are now in the users appdata directory.

New in cFos Outlook DAV 1.04 Pre-Release (Aug 29, 2013)

  • Added support for tasks. You can configure and synchronise an Outlook task folder in the same way as a calendar folder. This should work with normal CalDAV servers. You can store task items in the same CalDAV server location as event. But unfortunately this does not work with Google calendar, because the Google task format is unsuitable for Outlook tasks. For Google, cFos Outlook DAV converts the tasks into events. This is the closest representation Google calendar has for Outlook tasks. So users of Google calendar must create another calendar on Google which is used only for tasks. Then configure the task folder with this new Google (task) calendar URL. Note: For tasks exceptions from recurring events are not supported.
  • Fixed a bug where recurrent events were not handled correctly. Thanks to Maximilian Winkler for the help.
