Obviously, the event list just shows the contents of the DTEND tag which is the first day _after_ the event. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new event and check 'This event lasts all day'. It may span only one or several days. Actual Results: The event list is showing the first day after the event for 'End' whereas the day- week-, or month-view is correct. Expected Results: The last day of the event should be shown for 'End'. It is confusing that the list shows a day that is _after_ the event (e.g. a one-day event is shown with two days).

Another effect of the same problem ( as mentioned in Bug 210187 : "The calendar saves an event from 2003-06-21T00:00 to 2003-06-22T00:00. The consequence is that the event list says that the event lasts 2 days.") is: When you create a ("all") day-event in moz Calendar, and re-import the event (in the form of of one or more events or as a whole calendar file, in ics-format), the one day event is imported as a two day event. (Probably every n-day-event wil become an event for (n+1) days.) This makes the severity of this bug far more than "trivial". I would suggest "normal" or even "major" severity, because of combination of the following: a. "all day events" are an essential feature of the Calendar, especially as there is not yet an option for "indefinite" start and end time. b. In the current flux of frequently upcoming versions of Mozilla (and its *birds) the possibility to export and reimport Calendars is essential. c. The adding of one day in the duration of an event by re-inporting, makes the Calendar unusable for clueless users.

New contact from mikep@oeone.com to mostafah@oeone.com Filter on string OttawaMBA to get rid of these messages. Sorry for the spam.

An one-day-event is shown correctly in the event list (i.e. start and end date is the same day (the one of the event)) when it is a recurrent event!

I studied some calendars of icalshare.com (e. g. school holidays). For me it seems to be the same format, i. e. the last day shown in the calendar is one day before the stored day. Or vice versa, the stored day is the last day of the multi day event + 1. So this is perhaps the standard ical format, and mozilla is just working an intended (fulfilling the standard). I didn't search for the standard definition, though. It's just my conclusion. The event list shows the stored value. But perhaps it would be more consistent, if the last day dates shown in the event list were the same as in the week or moth overview.

Issue of All-Day events showing as the next day on End Date Syntax of the message, for example: Title: test Start: All day Tuesday, March 02, 2004 End: All day Wednesday, March 03, 2004 This is obviously very misleading, if the stored format is indeed iCal typical, ok...just correct the display and import.

This is a dupe of Bug 232320, (actually other way around), though this was resolved in its patch (#147722)

Marking this one dupe, since the patch is in 232320. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 232320 ***
