Summary0001355: SOGo writes DATETIME format in EXDATE for all-day events
Description

Recurring all-day events created by SOGo that have exceptions are (in my opinion) not well-formed.

I know that RFC5545 is not clear about the format for EXDATE and RDATE attributes for all-day events, but all-day events are floating and therefore should not be linked to any time zone (incl. UTC).

The attached event (created by the SOGo Demo-Server) has:

DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20110702

DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20110703

(the TZID-parameter is superfluous as well in this case, as the event starts on July 2nd everywhere on the world not just in Europe/Berlin)
but the EXDATE attribute is:

EXDATE:20110705T220000Z

I think it should be:

EXDATE:20110706

The first form would mean, the exception occurs on July the 5th at 22:00 if you happen to be located in UTC. But the exception is July 6th, no matter where you are.

Besides: Lightning doesn't honour the exception in the first format, it just ignores it.

RDATE attributes my be affected as well. I didn't check this.

TagsNo tags attached.
