Exporting a calendar one recurring event into comma delimited format for outlook express is incapable of being uploaded into outtlook. If you look at the file itself, not all the information is there, one field is repeated a second time at the end, and column and data values do not always match.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:

Currently looks like no information about recurrences are exported into the file. What is the state of this feature?

To my knowledge all versions of Outlook are unable to import or export repeated events into or from csv file. Adding recurrence information to events in the exported csv files would be easy. Please describe the wanted information and format.

The import/export code for Outlook CSV format has been removed in bug 1226851. Therefore resolving this bug report as WONTFIX.
