Hi,

I am following this bug report for a year now. So I think it's time to add some inputs :)

As the requester, I like to have 2 exchange calendars in Thunderbird/Lighting but not even shared. And as said the second calendar will always duplicate the first one you've setup.

In my case it doesn't look like it is tied to the username because I use 2 different usernames and it still duplicate so I guess either it uses the FQDN or it just does not work with more than one calendar :) Sadly I can't change the SERVER name because it's https and then if I put a DNS alias (CNAME) thunderbird whinges about the certificate not matching the name. And I can't change the cert, but if there is a way to disable common name (cn=) checks in the certificate then I could try.

I use :
https://DOMAIN%5CLOGIN1@SERVER/EWS/Exchange.asmx : lets call this calendar : login1
https://DOMAIN%5CLOGIN2@SERVER/EWS/Exchange.asmx : lets call this calendar login2

Login1 works fine. But once login2 is created, it actually displays login1 again. Of course if you create them in reverse order then login1 will be a copy of login2.

I am using :
Thunderbird 3.1.8
Lightning 1.0b2
Provider for MS Exchange 0.17
Linux CentOS 5.6
