Description Jamin W. Collins 2006-08-10 21:09:34 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When adding a meeting request from a remote MS Exchange user in another time zone to your calendar its entry is shown based on the original author's timezone.  For example, a meeting request sent from an individual in CDT to an individual in EDT for 3-4pm CDT meeting will display in the EDT individual's calendar as being from 3-4pm instead of 4-5pm as it should.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Add a meeting request to your calendar from a user in a differnet timezone (ie CDT user sends request to EDT user)


Actual results:
Entry in EDT user's calendar is off by one hour.  A 3-4pm CDT meeting is displayed as being from 3-4pm instead of 4-5pm as it should be, due to the time difference.

Expected results:
The entry be displayed based on the local user's time.

Does this happen every time?
Thus far, yes.

jamin, which evolution version are you running exactly? can you please try this again with the latest 2.6.3 release? this could be a duplicate of bug 332911 ...
thanks in advance.

I'm using version 2.6.1-0ubuntu7 (Ubuntu Dapper).  This does appear to be a duplicate of bug 33291. I will look into trying 2.6.3, but not sure how much success I'll have on that front as I'd rather not rebuild large portions of the system outside Ubuntu's available packages.
