User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.1b2) Gecko/20081201 Firefox/3.1b2

i got an invitation to an event from an outlook-user and accepted it. this way the event was added automatically into my calendar and this event was marked as "processed", it worked well. 

now because of some circumstances (bugs with webdav-calendars) this event disappeared out of my calendar. since it was the only event i had in my cal i am sure it is gone because now i have zero events in it ;)

i want to readd it again to my cal (with all that information about participants etc.), but thunderbird says the mail has already been processed (which is right, of course) - a possibility to readd an already processed item in case of such a loss would be nice!

i'm not sure what happens when i delete the event manually - would this event then be marked as "unprocessed" again or be in the same state like described above?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. accept an event sent to you
2. loose this event out of your cal by some bug (or maybe delete the event manually)
Actual Results:  
event is gone, event-email is marked as processed, no way to readd it to the calendar

Expected Results:  
either reset state of the event-mail to "unprocessed" or give a possibility to readd the event.

using gentoo x86_64 with 32bit-thunderbird

... the event appeared again while writing this bug-report. don't know why, manually reloading the cal did not work before... but well, it's in there now.

so this bug can be invalidated, the source of the disappearing has to be traced now (when i can reproduce it, i will open a new bugreport).

(a possibility for the reporter to mark his bug as "invalid" would be nice)
