Re: systemd init file I'm not opposed to including a systemd init file, however I don't think it should be enabled by default. 1. For example, in a multiuser system, this would not work since davmail is attached to a single user account. 2. In a desktop system, a simple DE startup for davmail works well. It always starts up for me perfectly in xfce4, unlike some other similar packages like dropbox which always seems to have problems showing up in the notification area. 3. I cannot seem to locate this mythical systemd file included with davmail. It's not in the generic linux package and I didn't see it in the rpm. If someone can send me a merge request or simply email me the changes, I'll include them, but leave it up to users to enable the script. Is this acceptable?

Added check for gtk-update-icon-cache, thanks harpchad

davmail.install calls gtk-update-icon-cache, but gtk-update-icon-cache may not be installed as there's no dependency on the gtk-update-icon-cache package. Rather than adding a dependency, maybe you can test for the binary before executing, e.g.: [[ -x /usr/bin/gtk-update-icon-cache ]] && gtk-update-icon-cache -q -t -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor

@elwinar : I created systemd init file and it seems to work well and I combined it with a davmail.server=true which work pretty well. Just a curiosity what the next version would contain more in this area? belette

I just flagged the package out-of-date, because there is a new 4.6.2 version, which include init scripts. I you want some help with this let me know. Cheers, Elwinar;

Is it possible to add the systemd script to the package. The one mentioned by square252 should work, but davmail would need to be installed to /opt/davmail instead of /usr/bin and the config file would have to be located at the /opt/davmail folder, otherwise it could be used as the basis and adjusted to the used paths from this package. Thanks!

Thanks Logout22. It's more effective to flag the package as out of date which notifies me. Otherwise its up to me to visit this page and read your comment.

thanks for providing this package. Sadly Exchange is used almost everywhere in corporate environments... What about adding this systemd Script to the PKGBUILD? https://github.com/stdevel/davmail-initscript The one zork posted does not work very well, because davmail itself is not killable via killall. Only the java process (which would kill much more on my system than just davmail)
