Odd behavior from Korganizer

@ostroffjh:

Then, it’s an issue related to KOrganizer’s interpretation of iCalendar content – RFC 5545 and the other RFCs related to iCalendar.

  • Yes, yes, I know – the Kontact components are quite strict with respect to RFC conformance but,
    it would be often useful if, the strict conformance to the RFCs could be relaxed for specific issues –
    such as the case in question:

  • An appointment has been received with the recipient not being mentioned in iCalendar “PARTICIPANT” parameter.


You could edit the received .ics file and add yourself to the “PARTICIPANT” parameter …


In the past KMail behaved badly if received e-Mail had a badly formatted empty “From:” parameter – the colon and the suffix space were missing …
Which is sort of the same issue – possibly …


A Change Request addressed to the Kontact/KOrganiser folks could be a possible solution.
