Hi Johan, Thanks for the reply. The user account is [email protected].
The calendars that have exhibited the behaviour I described since the beginning of April are the following: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] The first is the one I've been using for unit testing. The rest are in use in production. The user account in question has about 25 calendars in all, although according to our audit logs, these are the calendars that have experienced activity during the period in question.
