Comment 119 for bug 633352

Yes, yes. I see your point. Probably the fault is mine for calling it a "fix." I undoubtedly should have called it a "work-around" because it really does not cure whatever caused the duplicate entries in the first place.

My work-around just gives the poor user a way to stop the annoying phenomenon of not being bothered by those undismissable and un-snoozable pop-up reminders without having to un-tick the "Show missed events" option. Know what I mean?

Thanks for your feedback and clarifying remarks. I still hope that some somewhat sophisticated users can employ this work-around in order to get a little relief. In the meantime, I hope the developers (I am clearly NOT one) can use what I documented in order to come up with a real fix. Maybe they already knew about it. Lightning is a damn fine T-bird add-on. And I never once considered stopping using it. There's nothing out there that does as good a job or has as many of Lightning's wonderful features.
