Details

Steps to reproduce:

I have a standart Apache web server on my private CentOS7 server where II have enabled WebDAV on a directory that I use to store, among other things, som calendars.
This has worked well for many years, now I had to set up a new Thunderbird installation and add these calendars, so I added the calendar as https://server/webdav/birthdays as it is known on existing Thunderbirds.

Actual results:

Thunderbird came and told me it did no find any calendar. Looking on the server I could see that the file now was zero-length. I restored the file from backup, retried, same result. After some head banging I renamed the file to birthdays.ics, and - lo and behold - things are fine, the calendar is available.
This was with Thunderbird 102 as distributed with Centos7. Same thing happens with Thunderbird 109.b4 on Windows.

Expected results:

It should not make a difference if the file has the .ics extension or not. It certailly should not destroy the file.
Existing Thunderbirds, set up a couple of years ago, has no problem with files without extension.
