[Opensync-users] opensync and evolution2 questions

[David R. <ro...@mo...>]

I've just installed 0.17 of opensync (I'd been running an older version
of multisync, and just discovered that that project no longer exists).
I also installed the gui, and the file and evolution plugins.  

Here's what I want to do:

I run evolution on my desktop and laptop.  Both have local Inboxs and
other mail files, calendars, contact-lists, etc.  I want the two to stay
in sync.  In the past, I used something called mailsync to deal with
unix-like mbox's and that still seems to work (sort-of) with evolution
mail folders (although I have to run opensync to get rid of some index
corruption that this causes).  It won't work on address books etc.

In any event, can opensync do all this for me?  The gui allows me to
specify both ends of the connection as evo2-sync, but there doesn't seem
to be any options to tell it that one of the pair is actually a remote
host and that it should be accessed using some protocol (SSL/SSH/FTP,
etc).
I can set up an nfs link to the remote system, so perhaps I can set
things up that way.

So:

1.  How do I specify a remote host and transport mechanism?
2.  I'm also not 100% from the documentation  that opensync really is
intended to sync mailfolders; is it?

Thanks in advance for any help.
