SOGo

SOGo is used for accessing your mails via a webbrowser, adding and sharing your contacts or calendars. For a more in-depth documentation on SOGo please visit its own documentation.

Apply custom SOGo theme

mailcow builds after 28 January 2021 can change SOGo's theme by editing data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js. Please check the AngularJS Material intro and documentation as well as the material style guideline to learn how this works.

You can use the provided custom-theme.js as an example starting point by removing the comments. After you modified data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js and made changes to your new SOGo theme you need to

1. edit data/conf/sogo/sogo.conf and append/set SOGoUIxDebugEnabled = YES;
2. restart SOGo and Memcached containers by executing docker compose restart memcached-mailcow sogo-mailcow.
3. open SOGo in browser
4. open browser developer console, usually shortcut is F12
5. only if you use Firefox: write by hands in dev console allow pasting and press enter
6. paste java script snipet in dev console:

   copy([].slice.call(document.styleSheets)
     .map(e => e.ownerNode)
     .filter(e => e.hasAttribute('md-theme-style'))
     .map(e => e.textContent)
     .join('\n')
   )
   

7. open text editor and paste data from clipboard (Ctrl+V), you should get minified CSS, save it
8. copy CSS file to mailcow server data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.css
9. edit data/conf/sogo/sogo.conf and set SOGoUIxDebugEnabled = NO;
10. append/create docker-compose.override.yml with:

    version: '2.1'
    
    services:
      sogo-mailcow:
        volumes:
          - ./data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.css:/usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/css/theme-default.css:z
    

11. run docker compose up -d
12. run docker compose restart memcached-mailcow

Reset to SOGo default theme

1. checkout data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js by executing git fetch ; git checkout origin/master data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js
2. find in data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.js:

   // Apply new palettes to the default theme, remap some of the hues
       $mdThemingProvider.theme('default')
         .primaryPalette('green-cow', {
           'default': '400',  // background color of top toolbars
           'hue-1': '400',
           'hue-2': '600',    // background color of sidebar toolbar
           'hue-3': 'A700'
         })
         .accentPalette('green', {
           'default': '600',  // background color of fab buttons and login screen
           'hue-1': '300',    // background color of center list toolbar
           'hue-2': '300',    // highlight color for selected mail and current day calendar
           'hue-3': 'A700'
         })
         .backgroundPalette('frost-grey');
   

   and replace it with:

       $mdThemingProvider.theme('default');
   

3. remove from docker-compose.override.yml volume mount in sogo-mailcow:

   - ./data/conf/sogo/custom-theme.css:/usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/css/theme-default.css:z
   

4. run docker compose up -d
5. run docker compose restart memcached-mailcow

Change favicon

mailcow builds after 31 January 2021 can change SOGo's favicon by replacing data/conf/sogo/custom-favicon.ico for SOGo and data/web/favicon.png for mailcow UI. Note: You can use .png favicons for SOGo by renaming them to custom-favicon.ico. For both SOGo and mailcow UI favicons you need use one of the standard dimensions: 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, 128x128 and 256x256. After you replaced said file you need to restart SOGo and Memcached containers by executing docker compose restart memcached-mailcow sogo-mailcow.

Change logo

mailcow builds after 21 December 2018 can change SOGo's logo by replacing or creating (if missing) data/conf/sogo/sogo-full.svg. After you replaced said file you need to restart SOGo and Memcached containers by executing docker compose restart memcached-mailcow sogo-mailcow.

Connect domains

Domains are usually isolated from eachother.

You can change that by modifying data/conf/sogo/sogo.conf:

Search...

   // SOGoDomainsVisibility = (
    //  (domain1.tld, domain5.tld),
    //  (domain3.tld, domain2.tld)
    // );

...and replace it by - for example:

    SOGoDomainsVisibility = (
      (example.org, example.com, example.net)
    );

Restart SOGo: docker compose restart sogo-mailcow

Disable password changing

Edit data/conf/sogo/sogo.conf and change SOGoPasswordChangeEnabled to NO. Please do not add a new parameter.

Run docker compose restart memcached-mailcow sogo-mailcow to activate the changes.

Reset TOTP / Disable TOTP

Run docker compose exec -u sogo sogo-mailcow sogo-tool user-preferences set defaults user@example.com SOGoTOTPEnabled '{"SOGoTOTPEnabled":0}' from within the mailcow directory.
