Appointments mailed into Vibe calendars do not show up as appointments

This document (7014838) is provided subject to the disclaimer at the end of this document.

Environment

Novell Vibe 3.4
Novell GroupWise

Situation

When one or more Vibe calendars is setup for E-Mail Postings, some appointments mailed from GW Client to the Vibe calendar do not post as appointments. Instead, they are posted as standard discussion entries without a valid start or end date/time.

Resolution

A patch is available to correct this problem for Novell Vibe 3.4. Please contact Novell Technical Support with reference to this TID and request the patch.

Cause

The underlying reason was the use of a non-standard timezone ID in the iCal sent from the GW Client (this may also be the case of other e-mail clients) which was being rejected by Vibe.
