Dear SmarterTools-Team,
invitations to other Clients (reproduced many times with Lotus Notes) lead to wrong appointment times (one hour shifted; e.g. invited for 22:00 from smartermail and saved for 21:00 in Lotus Notes)
I guess the reason is the definition for the beginning of standard and of daylight which smartermail uses.
For middle european time zone the daylight begins yearly at the last Sunday in March.
Smartermail uses
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=5SU;BYMONTH=3 while others (e.g. outlook) use
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=3
For middle european time zone the standard begins yearly at the last Sunday in October.
Smartermail users
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=5SU;BYMONTH=10 while others use
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=10
Here the relevant part of the VCALENDAR text:
BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
