I don't know how you cope with working with iCal - I can't believe how buggy
it is...

Together with the odd behaviour of "eppc://" - which is so badly behaved
that it is impossible to test reliably using multiple accounts on a single
Mac - I ended up wasting an hour on recurrence before giving up and posting
to the list :-(

It was great to be able to go to bed, get up and find the answer in my inbox
- cheers.
