When I import an ics file that contains the text:
RRULE
 :FREQ=MONTHLY;COUNT=33;INTERVAL=1
That even when opened using the UI, show the recurrance settings as both
FOREVER and with a COUNT value of 33.

Sunbird 0.2a and Mozilla Calendar 20041104-cal

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new event in Sunbird (or calander) with a recurrent setting of
Monthly with a count = x (say 33).
2. Select and export that event from sunbird to a ics file.
3. Delete event from sunbird (just to make sure it is cleaned up)
4. Import that same event from the saves ics file.
5. Open evnet in Sunbird a view the recurrance settings.  Both FOREVER and COUNT
are set.



Expected Results:  
In this case, the COunt radio button should eb selected and NOT the FOREVER

I can confirm this with calendar 2005011113 (firefox/linux).  When an event is
imported with an RRULE defined by COUNT, both the 'Forever' and 'Number of
times' radio buttons appear checked in the recurrance tab of the event dialog. 
This happens regardless of whether the event repeats weekly, monthly, or yearly.
 However, the event appears in the actual calendar view the appropriate number
of times.  I suspect this is just a minor UI issue, but I couldn't pinpoint the
problem.  The .ics file quoted in the report works as a testcase, or I can
attach a simplified one if anyone requires.

STATUS: NEW

Reporter (or someone with sufficient priviledges) please change the following:

SEVERITY: Minor
SUMMARY: Importing recurring events with COUNT definition causes forever radio
button to also be selected.
