Migrating Zimbra Users from Gmail to Zimbra
Wednesday, December 26th, 2007We had to move a dozen users from Google Apps based E-Mail to our own Zimbra Server since Gmail doesn’t work from China Mainland.
1. 
Create the users in Zimbra. Enable “External POP3 access” for these users.
2. Log into the Managment Site of your Google Apps and change the passwords of all users to something you know.
3. 
Log into the Zimbra Account using the Zimbra managment interface. Create a folder “Gmail”. Navigate to Options -> POP Accounts and configure access to Gmail.
3. 
Select the folder Gmail and than select “Get POP Mail”. In my experience this is very unreliable. It took ca. 20 attempts to get all mails and resulted in many duplicates.

Sunday, December 16th, 2007“Wicked problems possess a number of distinctive properties that violate the assumptions that must be made to use the problem solving methods of tame problems. Wicked problems:
* cannot be easily defined so that all stakeholders agree on the problem to solve;
* require complex judgements about the level of abstraction at which to define the problem;
* have no clear stopping rules;
* have better or worse solutions, not right and wrong ones;
* have no objective measure of success;
* require iteration-every trial counts;
* have no given alternative solutions-these must be discovered;
* often have strong moral, political or professional dimensions”
