Package: claws-mail-vcalendar-plugin
Version: 3.11.1-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I have been experimenting with Claws Mail for calendaring and found that when
cancelling events as an organiser, Claws (or rather the vCalendar plugin)
sends a mail with an inappropriate Content-Type parameter for the scheduling
method.
According to RFC 6047 (iMIP)...
"The [RFC2045] "Content-Type" header field MUST also include the MIME
parameter "method". The value MUST be the same (ignoring case) as the value
of the "METHOD" property within the iCalendar object."
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6047#section-2.4
However, in a cancellation object, METHOD will be CANCEL, and thus the
Content-Type must also employ a method parameter with the value "CANCEL".
Instead, Claws' vCalendar plugin seems to use "REQUEST".
The upstream code that is probably responsible for this is here:
http://git.claws-mail.org/?p=claws.git;a=blob;f=src/plugins/vcalendar/vcal_manager.c;h=a21c6a859f888fa3f8950e381dc4f9122e9903f3;hb=HEAD#l1238
Here is what is produced:
Content-Type: text/calendar; method=REQUEST; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION
:2.0
PRODID
:-//Claws Mail//NONSGML Claws Mail Calendar//EN
CALSCALE
:GREGORIAN
METHOD
:CANCEL
Note the mismatch between the Content-Type method value and the iCalendar
METHOD property.
I hope this is informative! Apologies in advance if I should have reported
this directly upstream.
Paul
