In my case mailbox.org works fine via caldav and carddav. Just use the manual for carddav setup on their homepage.
You can also try Jolla's Exchange App with Mailbox.org but I had troubles in the past.

Yes. I set up mailbox.org, i.e. IMAP, Carddav and Caldav. I didn't experience any special problems with IMAP nor Caldav but a data loss with Carddav, so maybe you would like to be careful when using mailbox.org Carddav on SFOS. Here is a more detailed description: I found out, that for some reason and somehow SFOS Carddav partially deleted several of my around 1400 contacts. Sometimes one or two phone numbers were missing, sometimes an email-address. Those deleted contacts were contacts that I haven't used for quite a long time as well as contacts that I use all the time. I really don't see a rule, but for sure this is very annoying.
If you understand german, this might be of interest, even if it concerns Android. May be it's a similar issue: https://userforum.mailbox.org/knowledge-base/article/telefonnummernverlust-per-carddav https://userforum.mailbox.org/topic/kontakte-synchronisation-unvollst%C3%A4ndig https://userforum.mailbox.org/topic/wann-wird-die-carddav-unterst%C3%BCtzung-f%C3%BCr-android-verbessert

Hi @Loenneberga, I don't know if you'r aware that there is an in my opinion interesting thread concerning CALDAV/CARDDAV with a lot of activity during the past months: CalDAV/CardDAV testing volunteers requested. Maybe you can contribute there with your use case.
I plan to buildup a personal own/nextCloud instance at home by the end of February and at the latest then I will also plunge in on that subject.

CalDAV works fine here (configuration as per online documentation). I didn't test CardDAV yet, but note that you most likely need two separate accounts on your SF phone for both features. Their ActiveSync service should also work, but I only tested IMAP+CalDAV so far.
