> </ClientEntryId>
> <ServerEntryId>
> 20141201091425.VE112qMahoFlX-0kMiECsQ8 at ....
> </ServerEntryId>

>
> If the attendee accepts the event and adds it to his own calendar,

> UID:325ddb65-6ed5-408e-b7b4-aca646d1f32e

This is indeed very bad. The client id is supposed to be replaced
client-side by the server id. However, if the invitations are sent
prior to the client doing that and it sends the client id as the UID
(which should be the server id) then this is going to be difficult to
workaround. Please create a ticket on bugs.horde.org.
