Issue Creating multiple VEVENT by mail

Post by cst44 »

Hi,
I'm trying to create multiple events in lightning calendar embedded in Thunderbird.
I managed to create a mail text/calendar format wich is well received by thunderbird.
I'm sure of that because the button 'Accept All' is displayed to accept all events creation in one step.

But when the button is clicked, all events are created in the last date.
I don't understand why.
If the atached ics file (exact same format) is used to import by menu, the different dates are well created.
I send the ics file to my professional mail and dates are well interpreted.
(as the mail itself is not received as an calendar mail, I think the problem is in mail format but I don't know how to attach the mail itself to this post).

Here is my ics source, thanks to tell me if I forgot something :

Hi,
That don't solve the issue.
Try to send a mail to your thunderbird mail account with your .ics file.
You will received the mail, then thunderbird will display a "All Accept" button.
When clicking 'Ok', you will have 2 events with the same date and time (last ones).
If you import (by menu) you will have the 2 events with desired date and time.

--> So, thanks to your post, since it give me the evidence it's a Thunderbird/Lightning bug, not an issue of my file format.

Regards.
