Sorry, I guess I should read your message more carefully... ;-)

However, at least the 'DESCRIPTION' field of the VCALENDAR  
(text/calendar) block in your original posting shows /exactly/ the same  
broken makeup as the one created by Horde (so I wrongly assumed it came  
also from it).  That 'DESCRIPTION' field *definitively* violates RFC  
2445 which requires that newlines must be escaped [1]!

Thus, the agent you use (which one?) is *broken*, and you should file a  
bug report there.

<rant>
I *really* dislike to defend M$ or Outlook, but at this point they are  
not wrong; they just interpret the RFC strictly.

Cheers, Albrecht.
