Could someone import the attached ICS file into SOGo and report what
time the event shows up at? If you go to webmail and change your
timezone to Europe/London, it should say 19:00 GMT (for me I get 18:00).
If you change to America/Denver, it should been 12:00 MST (I get 11:00
MST).
Assuming it imports right for other people (there would be a lot more
traffic on the mailing list if everyone were seeing this), any one have
any ideas why such a simple ICS isn't being read right on my SOGo
install? (Debian Jessie, SOGo version 2.3.6).
Thanks,
Ben

More info. The problem seems to be SOGo subtracting an hour off all
events that it displays. I created a calendar event in google
calendar. Inspecting the ICS file, it has no timezone information --
just sends the date in GMT (DTSTART:20160119T190000Z). America/Denver
is currently in standard timezone and -700. That puts the time at
T1900 - 700 = 1200 = Noon.
But that event in SOGo webmail shows up at 11:00 MST. (I looked at
ICS file once it was in my calendar and it is the same, so SOGo isn't
doing anything to the ICS file). If I go into my preferences in
webmail and change the timezone to Europe/London, then it reports the
time as "18:00 GMT" even though the event says T1900 for the start.
I've attached the ICS file (and included it inline here). Can someone
try adding this event into either SOGo and see if it is the right
time? Does SOGo use anything other than the ICS file and the timezone
in the preferences file to display the time?

Some more information on my (probably) timezone error. I created an

the ICS Inspector t-bird plugin, I can view the ICS file as it is
reported to t-bird by SOGo. The file looks correct and is shown below

The event is on Jan 22nd at 12:00 America/Denver time, where that
timezone is defined as -0700 by the TIMEZONE section (Jan is between
Nov and March, and thus Standard time). Everything looks good here.
But the event shows up in SOGo webmail at "11:00 MST" If I change my
timezone preferences in SOGo to Chicago timezone, the event shows up
at "12:00 CST" so it is doing the adjustments for timezone, but
somehow is reading the time wrong for the ICS file.
Is there a way to get more information on why SOGo web views the
event as being at 11 and not 12? Any other ideas of things to check /
change or report?

Also, could this be similar to
