I can confirm that this is still an issue for RPC based syncing via  
ICS files from thunderbird. We use "realm" for our imp authentication  
against dovecot. When logging in using "username" , all calendar  
entries created using the horde web interface are owned by  
"username at domain.ca", if we connect lightning using remote calendar  
ICS feed, any calendar items created from lightning are owned by  
"username".

Workarounds so far are:
1. create permissions on the calendar to allow "username" to manage  
the calendar were "username at domain.ca" is the actual owner

2. Configure Dovecot to allow authentication using  
"username at domain.com" by stripping the domain portion, and using this  
full email address as the authentication credentials for the lightning  
prompt.

This should be fixed to be seamless for web and client based connections.
