IMAP Push Notifications

From EGroupware 20.1 on supported IMAP servers can be configured to send push notifications to EGroupware's push server.

Currently only supported is Dovecot on premise and EGroupware GmbH's mail service for the hosting (mail.egroupware.org). If you use our hosting, nothing special need to be done, everything is already preconfigured for you.

More detailed information about configuring it for your on premise Dovecot will be available here soon, see the Dovecot documentations for now.
