Question Can Zimbra do this? (Calendaring for courses)

I just stumbled across this site while searching for calendaring applications. I've been searching high and low for something that can do what I need.

I basically just need to be able to schedule courses. For example, start a class on, say, Jan 2, held every Tue and Thu, but not during spring break, and go for exactly 20 sessions.

I then need to be able to generate a list of dates and times.

Sounds pretty straightforward, right? But it's hard to find something that does exactly that.

Thanks in advance for any pointers!

Yes, this can be done. You'd setup a re-occuring event, with a repeat of 20. Then you'd go into the list view and print it off.

This part sounds particularly good, something I haven't found in other applications.

Do you know by chance whether I can input a custom list of holidays? I saw some functionality like that in Sunbird, but didn't get to the testing stage.

Just a quick note, I'm using the Zimbra web interface for the example posted, not the Zimbra Desktop, I'm guessing it would have the same functionality. That being said, I don't know if you can do a custom list of holidays, I use KDE's KOrganizer with the Zimbra calendar and in that you can.
