[Davmail-users] Korganizer + davmail -- ErrorMimeContentConversion failed

[Volker C. <vol...@li...>]

Hello!

I am using Korganizer + davmail since a long time and everything was find. But since an update of KDE i am not able to create events on the exchange server (Version 2013) of my company anymore. I always get an "ErrorMimeContentConversion failed". Yesterday i took time to track down the problem using a plain connection to the exchange server with curl and it turns out to be the complictate VTIMEZONE definitions of the event created by KOrganizer. When i completely remove all VTIMEZONE sections and als TZID-fields the event gets created without an error.
As I am not an exchange-expert i can not find the problem of the VTIMEZONE-sections, though they are RFC-5545 compliant.
Thus, i need help by someone with deeper knowledge in this field. Is there anybody how can identify the problem and possible fix it in davmail - if it is fixable?

Kind regards
Volker Christian
