Hi, have been using SME since version 4.1.2, but not in any way a Linux/SME expert.
Would like to try out Sogo and would like to know if installing it would/could affect the current email setup in any way?
Currently using Thunderbird and Outlooks client in Windows via IMAP and would be grateful if someone could let me know if that would work as before after installing Sogo?

Hi Terje, welcome here..

installing SOGo won't affect email features.. you can safely install it following the wiki page

Sogo is effectively just another client to your mailboxes, just as Thunderbird or Outlook are (in IMAP mode)

So it won't affect you.

Thanks for the info!
I logged in as root and got the "error message" below.
Any advice?

Did you actually configure those repositories on your sme server BEFORE running the yum install command ?
ie
click on the hyperlink for each repo name & follow config instructions, on the part of the wiki article that says
"For SME 9 , You need to activate Stephdl, epel, fws and sogo repository"

Thanks Janet,
You're right, I just issued the command and guess I have to do something like the below for each repository first?
Best regards,
Terje

stephdl

db yum_repositories set stephdl repository \
BaseURL http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/smeserver/\$releasever \
EnableGroups no GPGCheck yes \
Name "Mirror de Labrusse" \
GPGKey http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/RPM-GPG-KEY \
Visible yes status disabled

After adding it to the database updating the configuration file is required:
signal-event yum-modify

Yes for each one of the four repos (as these are not configured by default on sme server)

Stephdl
epel
fws
sogo
