[sync] Horde-Thunderbird/Lightning sync

[Carsten Schumann]

Hi Paolo,

here is my approach which I use with Lightning and my Horde.

To access the Kronolith calenadar with Lightning or Thunderbird, you 
have to create a new remote calendar. As URL you choose (as described at 
http://wiki.horde.org/KronolithSunbird) 
http(s)://yourhost/yourhordepath/rpc.php/kronolith/YOUR-HORDE-USERNAME/YOUR-HORDE-USERNAME.ics 
.
When updating the calendar for the first time, Lightning asks for a 
username and password which is stored in lightning. After entering the 
credentials, you work with the calendar as if it is a local calendar.

BEWARE: If Lightning looses the connection to the remote calendar (i.e. 
Internet line down) you need to restart Thunderbird after your internet 
connection is reestablished. Otherwise your calendar entries can get 
messed up.

Best regards,
Carsten Schumann
