Contact email wrong when using iCal

[gmichels]

Hi all

I'm using ZCS 5.0.18 OSS and iCal 3.0.7 (Mac OS X 10.5.7) via CalDAV.

When I create an appointment with attendees from Zimbra Web, the invitation correctly shows my email as the organizer:



However when using iCal, the invitation shows postmaster as the organizer:



The functionality is working as expected (i.e. the organizer does receive the confirmation no matter which email is there), however it's visually wrong.

Is this a known issue? I just started using this feature and I couldn't find any relevant threads using the search.

Thanks.

Is the email setup correctly in mail? If mail is setup with sender email as postmaster@domain it will look like the event came from that address.

Yes, it's the only account I use in Zimbra:

Now the "me" card in address book has 3 emails and one of them has a check mark, which is the "home" address, and the email I use in Zimbra is the "work" address:



I've read the email should be in the "me" card for invitations to work correctly, however I haven't read anything about that check mark and I don't know what it means.

This is occurring for me as well, with the same versions. This issue did not occur with earlier versions of zimbra.

I have a primary account and a persona. The persona is being used as the email when creating a calendar entry in iCal.

I've seen something similar to Gregor, but I haven't had time to try to reproduce.

Bug 40506 – existence of alias causes CalDAV notifications to appear as sent "on behalf of" main address
