<title>Using a CalDAV task or memo list</title>

<p>To add such a task list or memo list to <app>Evolution</app>, perform the following steps:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui><gui>Task List</gui></guiseq> or <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui><gui>Memo List</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Select the type <gui>CalDAV</gui>.</p></item>
<item>
   <p>To discover the task lists or memo lists, announced by the server, enter the server address as <gui>URL</gui> and optionally <gui>User</gui>, then click on <gui style="button">Find Task Lists</gui>/<gui style="button">Find Memo Lists</gui>. Select a task or memo list and <gui>User mail</gui>.
   This prefills the fields <gui>Name</gui>, <gui>Color</gui>, <gui>URL</gui> and (see below) <gui>Email</gui>. The step is optional, and you can overwrite all the discovered settings.</p>
</item>
<item><p>Enter a name that you prefer.</p></item>
<item><p>Optionally choose a color that you prefer.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter the address in the <gui>URL</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>Choose <gui>Use a secure connection</gui> if you want to connect securely.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter your username and email address. When an assigned task is created in the task list, this email address is prefilled as Organizer.</p></item>
    <item>
      <p>When an assigned task is created, modified or deleted, a notification can be sent to the other parties.
      If <gui>Server handles meeting invitations</gui> is selected, <app>Evolution</app> uploads the task and assumes
      that the server informs other parties. When the option is not selected, <app>Evolution</app> sends an email.</p>
    </item>
<item><p>Click <gui style="button">OK</gui>.</p></item>
</steps>

<p>The task list will be added to the list of task lists in <app>Evolution</app>.</p>
