Make it abundantly clear that the FQDN must resolve properly
Open, NormalPublic8 Story Points

Description

In the setup-kolab intro, make it abundantly clear that the System FQDN used must adhere to strict conditions;

  1. For the system on which Kolab is installed, the FQDN must resolve back to the system in question.
    1. The system FQDN may resolve back to 127.0.0.1, but this won't help with the other conditions.
  2. The system FQDN is also used to negotiate access between the Roundcube Kolab Plugins and Manticore, and must therefore also resolve for the outside world.
    1. This may be amended such as using demo01.example.org for the system FQDN, with the URL used in browsers being demo.example.org.

Correcting the priority from 60/40 to Normal

Is it ok if the FQDN resolves only to an IPv6 address (working and reachable)?

I suppose it should. If it doesn't, we'll take a ticket.
