Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 194556

(Calendar :: General, enhancement)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

When one instance of a recurring event is deleted, the entire series is deleted,
which may not be desired.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new event. Set the event to recur weekly.
2. Delete a specific instance of this recurring event.
3. Confirm the delete.

Actual Results:  
Mozilla Calendar/Sunbird deletes the entire series.

Expected Results:  
It might be more desirable if Calendar by default only deleted that specific
occurence, and added it to the exception list for the recurrence (similar to
Outlook behavior). Perhaps Mozilla could offer a choice between adding it as an
exception or deleting the entire series.
