Please describe the problem: *Task Assigned to a particular user id not getting assigned *Task Assigned to (personal)"On this Computer" is getting assigned to all ids Steps to reproduce: Steps for reproducing first case: 1.

Steps for reproducing Second case: 1. Right click on a mail and click on "Convert to Task" 2. In the dialog box select "Personal"(under "On this Computer") and click ok 3. Check Tasks for different email-ids . Actual results: First case: Task Was not getting assigned to the email-id Second case :It was existing as task for each and every email-id Expected results: Does this happen every time? YES Other information:
I don't observe this in 2.3.7, moving to NEEDINFO.
running evo-2.5.91: click on an email, choose "convert to task". go to tasks view. right-click on that converted task and choose "assign task". now i cannot add/edit/delete any attendees, also the task editor does not care that i normally have enabled "view | time zone" (time zone filed is displayed if i choose a normal task and right-click "assign task"). reopening. viren: please do not mark bugs as NEEDINFO if you do not ask for info - this is misusage.
It's because organizer is the mail initiator, so you cannot change task values when you are not an organizer. It can be either reply-to or from (in this order). Do you really want to change this?
Bumping version to a stable release.
Evolution currently saves regular (unassigned) tasks. Users can assign them to anybody in the opened editor or when right-clicking it and choosing "Assign Task".
