Well, DavMail does not manage timezones directly, it just maps timezone names:

(GMT+03.00)\ Moscow/St.\ Petersburg/Volgograd=Europe/Moscow
(GMT+04.00)\ Moscow/St.\ Petersburg/Volgograd=Europe/Moscow

=> both are mapped to Europe/Moscow

Hi Mickael,

Could you give a hint why time could be wrong in Calendar?

For example.
There is an event starting at 1PM (CET) and if I open this event (double click) in Thunderbird it shows "1PM Europe/Sarajevo". As the same time in the calendar it appears as "4PM" while this has to be "3PM".

Cheers,
Stanislav

Well, this seems to be the Lightning issue.

This issue can be closed. Thank you.
