hi,

it seems that kronolith doesn't escape commas in the description field of
the attached .ics file, so libical fails to parse the field properly.

here's an example .ics attachment (i edited the email-adresses):
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
VERSION:2.0
METHOD:REQUEST
PRODID:-//The Horde Project//Horde_iCalendar Library//EN
BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART:20051126T110000Z

DTSTAMP:20051125T180910Z
UID:20051125190910.1v5vefs910sg at cms.ac
SUMMARY:testing
TRANSP:OPAQUE
ORGANIZER;CN=JG:MAILTO:jg at cms.ac
DESCRIPTION:this is the description field, and \nhere is some text 
LOCATION:somewhere
ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION:MAILTO:jg at cms.ac
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

if  i view the .ics file in sylpheed-claws with vcalendar plugin which uses
libical to view it, i only get the text "this is the description field" in
the output, the rest is cut off.
