Reminders acting wierd?

I've noticed for the past few weeks that my calendar reminders are not  
working as expected.  Instead of sending the reminder before the  
event's actual time, it gets sent as if the event were scheduled for  
the midnight before.

Example:  Meeting, 9:00 AM, 5 minute alarm.
Expected:  Reminder at 8:55 AM.
Actual: Reminder at 11:55 PM the night before.

Has anyone else seen anything like this?

I haven't been getting emails period - I haven't had a chance to debug it yet.

reminder comes an hour early

I am just setting up kronolith and I am getting reminders an hour
early for appointments.   horde shows the right time on my main horde
page.  I am assuming this has something to do with DST as I live in
Arizona which does not do DST and is therefore _always_ GMT-7.  I
don't have any problems like this with any other app.

All Day Events

Since using Horde, I've grown accustomed to the fact that it recognizes All
Day appointments as "Start: Day1 12:00am" to "End: Day2 12:00am" (24 Hour
Event). However, Outlook (at least, possibly others) recognizes All Day
appointments as "Start: Day1 12:00am" to "End: Day1 12:00am". Horde, of
course, only recognizes this as a 0 hour/0 minute appointment.

My question/concern is-- what would be involved with allowing Horde to
recognize both formats as "All Day" events? Is this something that should be
done to accommodate those of us who frequently rely on both?

This seems, to me at least, to be a better alternative than modifying all of
the Import/Export code and SyncML code to convert Outlook's format to
Horde's format.

Any thoughts?

separate reminder address

It would be extremely useful to have a setting for an email address
different from your normal horde user email address for sending
kronolith reminders to.  In other words, I want to get reminders on my
mobile device, but I don't want all horde messages to go there.

This could also be a horde feature since more than kronolith does reminders.

It makes sense to me to do this just for 12am to 12am events (not 6am  
to 6am, for example). If that sounds right to you, I say go ahead and  
create an enhancement ticket for it.

Make sure you have set a correct timezone in your prefs that considers  
this fact and works correctly on your system.

Re: reminder comes an hour early

I have my timezone in horde set to America/Phoenix which should know
that there is no DST in Phoenix.
