[Evolution] Problem with All Day Events and GroupWise 7.0.1

[Heiko Jansen <jansen hbz-nrw de>]

Hi all,

before creating a new bugzilla entry IÂd like to ask if anybody has also
experienced this phenomenon and knows a workaround (or simply what IÂm
doing wrong):

- When I create a new all day event for day X in my groupwise calender
via evo this event is shown in groupwise as starting on day X at 13:00
and ending on day X+1, 13:00

- All day events created in groupwise via x-plattform client are shown
in evo a day early

I use Evolution 2.8.2 (openSUSE 10.2, KDE) and GroupWise 7.0.1.

The following is an excerpt from the evo/gw communication where I
created an all day event on March, 9th:

I wonder why startDate ist 20070309 and endDate is 20070310?

If itÂs needed I can also try to find the info send from groupwise to
evo for existing all day events (which might explain why they are shown
a day early in evo).
