I use reminders on events - for the past few days when a reminder pops up - if I dismiss it (as aponsed to telling it to sleep for hours/days) it moves the event from the calendar..... I'm using Thunderbird 78.5.1 I think it might be a bug...

I'm concerned there is another bug which is quite specific and I'm trying to get information from the community.

Has anyone noticed if the Event seems to get deleted if one of the following occurs:

  • You get a pop up reminder and you select to dismiss
  • You get pop up reminder and you just close pop up without selecting anything
  • You get a pop up reminder which you ignore, leave visible and exit Thunderbird.

If you get a pop up reminder and make any other selection like snooze for a day and it deletes the event - I need to know.

If you have any information, please report what OS you use, what version of Thunderbird, whether it is portable version or not. What you selected with that pop up reminder. Whether this is just Lightning home calendar or whether you are using CalDav etc.

All help in nailing down this specific bug would be appreciated. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1683321
