We have fixed a lot of bugs w.r.t calendar functionality. If you still get these bugs in SVN Head, would you be kind enough to point us to the corresponding bugzilla entries?

You can also try unchecking "Check for new messages in all folders" option provided for Exchange-connector in 2.9.x, which improves general mailer operations. > Basically, I need to be able to use this product, without being > punished with a lack of functiionality compared to my Outlook using > bretheren.
