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

Description

[robpuzzuoli]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9.0.2) Gecko/2008091620 Firefox/3.0.2
Build Identifier: Lightning Calendar 0.9 and Google Provider 0.5

I get an invite for a meeting from Outlook 2003 and click accept and asks what calender to add it to and no calender is available.

The reason for this is because my calender is a remote (network calender) and not local, so it cannot find it. If i create a local calender then it will add my meeting to the calender.

**This is the only thing holding me backup from switching from outlook to Thunderbird for all my email needs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Thunderbird
2. Install Lightning
3. Install Google Provider
4. Setup a network calender via Google Provider
5. Send an invite from outlook 2003
6. Try to accept the invite in Thunderbird.
7. It will tell you to select a calender and nothing will be listed in the text box.
Actual Results:  
It will tell you to select a calender and nothing will be listed in the text box.

Expected Results:  
It should add it to my remote(network) calender and notify the user that I accepted.

Confirm that this occurs ; I tried deleting and recreating the Google calendar but this did not repair it.

When you have 2 calendars, one local, one Google, the invitation is accepted into the local calendar without prompting. The invitation may be subsequently moved into the Google calendar. With two local calendars, the prompt appears but Google calendars are not listed.

I was unable to confirm whether this occurs for other network calendar providers.
