Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: E-mail based Scheduling (iTIP/iMIP), defect)

Description

[Stuart Miller]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.12) Gecko/20070508 Firefox/1.5.0.12
Build Identifier: 2007053004

We have a Groupwise server, and ICS events like the one attached are attached to messages. These messages are detected as having events, but it complains "This message contains an event that this version of Lightning cannot process." 

Lighting 0.31 was able to cope with these, and messages with events I have previously added to my calendar using 0.31 can no longer be processed.

If I save the attachment, and then import that in through Calendar > Import, the event shows up fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive a message with the event attached
2. Open the message
3. Save the attachment
4 [review]. Import the ICS file
Actual Results:  
Lightning says "This message contains an event that this version of Lightning cannot process." when the message is opened, but the event can be successfully imported.

Expected Results:  
The event is successfully added to the calendar in both circumstances.

Please check menu 'Tools -> Error Console' for related error messages.

The message you mentioned is produced in [http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=mozilla/calendar/lightning/content/imip-bar.js&rev=1.1.2.5&mark=197-202#169] if the iMIP Method is neither REQUEST nor REPLY.
