[sync] Timezone problem when synchronizing

[Karsten Fourmont]

Hi,

VEVENT timestamps come in two flavors: in "local time" without an ending 
"Z" an in UTC time, ending with a trailing "Z".

The normal way of exchanging times is using UTC, that's what currently 
exported by Horde SyncML.
It seems the Nokia phone only accepts local time.
I'll see what I can do.
Can you send a log of one session (/tmp/sync/syncml_log.txt)?

Thanks,
  Karsten
