Funambol sync with Thunerbird

[Dore]

We are using GO Pro 3.0 (stable 10) and have tried both Funambol 0.7 and 0.8 for syncr. with Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 running in Ubuntu 8.10, during this we have found an odd "error" in the mapping of e-mail adresses. Where the error is, is at the moment unknown to us, but we would like to know if anybody have identified the same problem and maybe fixed it.

What we see and have found so fare is that a recover of addresses from GO to Thunderbird (or changing address in GO and synconize) maps e-mail adresses as shown below:

GO e-mail 1 maps to TB "custom 1" (in other fields)
GO e-mail 2 maps to TB "additional e-mail"
GO e-mail 3 maps to TB "additional e-mail"

When correcting a contact in Thunderbird and syncronize maps the e-mail addresses as shown below:

TB e-mail maps to GO e-mail 1
TB additional e-mail maps to GO e-mail 2
TB "custom 1" (in other fields) maps to nothing

The result is devastating, correcting addresses in GO results in loss of the e-mail field in TB.

Through DEBUG in Funambol add-on to Thunderbird we have found the following mapping (when receiving from GO):

GO e-mail 1 maps to EMAIL:INTERNET:PREF
GO e-mail 2 maps to EMAIL:INTERNET:WORK
GO e-mail 3 maps to EMAIL:INTERNET:HOME

Transmit to GO did sadly not show the same information. But my conclusion is that "PREF" is mapped to TB "Custom 1", WORK to TB additional e-mail and HOME to TB e-mail.

Any info to find the reason for this problem and fixing it is desired.

This is a bug in the Thunderbird client. I will try to work around but it's really something the funambol team should fix.

Thanks.

I the meantime, I will post a bug-report to the Funambol team.

I already did that some time ago but I never heard from them. I can't seem to find my report anymore too so maybe you should resubmit it.
