Package: iceowl-extension
Version: 0.9-1

If I send an invitation with the subject "0123456 Das ist ein Käfer"
(without the quotes), the attendees (including me, if I add myself)
receive the invitation as text message which is not understood by
any calendar program (incl. iceowl). I.e. one has all the MIME stuff
and VCALENDAR as "readable" text.

Now the fun starts: Open the event in the calendar, change the
subject to "012345 Das ist ein Käfer" (I removed the 6 from the
numbers!), send out the update and everyone can join the party.

So probably sth. strange with non-ASCII, the string lenght and the
presence of space characters is going on. If I replace the German
"ä" with a Danish "å" or a Spanish "á" or a Chinese "我", the
behaviour is exactly the same, i.e. it works with 012345, but not
with 0123456 at the beginning. If I replace all spaces with "x"
(how nice) it works in any case.

Workaround: To be sure, don't use non-ASCII in the subject line.
