Yes at this stage anything will help..  and it's rather useful to see how
you have managed to get this feature to work, and it looks like it has to
do with the way the address book is also setup. I too have setup the
adressbook using SQL, but will later change that to LDAP, with some hope
of getting better interaction between Outlook, Evolution and all of Horde. 

Looking at http://bugs.horde.org/details.php?id=372, I can see there is a
few people are confused to how this feature Free/Busy is configured, and
not getting it working..  I guess discussion here will help a number of
people.
