1877464 - Calendar event time zone is completely off

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: General, defect)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:121.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/121.0

Steps to reproduce:

When I'm getting calendar event invitations, the event time looks for instance like this:

Start Date: Wednesday, January 31, 2024 02:30
(Tuesday, January 30, 2024 13:30, America/Chicago)

Actual results:

The calendar shows this event using the first date/time value. But it's completely incorrect.

Expected results:

The "Chicago time" is correct, that's the value that should be used. The first time value is not correct, and what time zone it even is in? It's not UTC, not my local time (UTC -6), not sender's local time (same as mine).

Can you provide a screenshot? And a sample message as .eml?
Check settings, are they set to use system timezone?

Time zone was incorrect indeed, but I don't see any option to make calendar use the system timezone. There is an option to select time zone used by the calendar, but it only has the list of time zones for different places. And I see that other people were asking same question, without any answer.

Ah. I see that this option was finally added in the latest version, so this bug can be closed.
