Guests added to an event vanished on save and no invitation was ever
sent. Not a guard in the editor, and nothing the server complained
about: ihasmail addresses a participant the way RFC 8984 does, with
sendTo and email, and Stalwart 0.16 keeps that address under
calendarAddress. Handed the RFC's spelling it stores the event, drops
the entire participant map, and reports success. Six shapes were tried
against a live 0.16.19, down to sendTo and roles alone; all six were
dropped, and patching a participant onto an existing event fails
outright with "Patch operation failed".
The same disagreement runs through two more properties. The organizer is
organizerCalendarAddress, not replyTo. A recurrence is a single
recurrenceRule, not a recurrenceRules array — and that one Stalwart
refuses honestly, with invalidProperties, so no recurring event could be
created at all and existing ones showed no repeat.
So writes now use Stalwart's names and reads accept either, since a
mailbox may hold events written by other clients. The mock now refuses
what the real server refuses and drops what it drops: advertising the
RFC spelling is exactly how this reached a live server unnoticed, the
same way the capability-placement bug did.
Verified against 0.16.19: participants, organizer and rule all survive a
create, an update and a re-read, with the roles kept as sent.

Rules alone were still wrong, in the other direction. A live 0.16.19 was
asked to expand a real weekly series: the occurrences come back carrying
no rule at all — only the master has one — and Stalwart spells that
master's rule "recurrenceRule", singular, not the RFC 8984 array ihasmail
looks for. So a genuine occurrence would have read as a one-off, and the
delete dialog would have offered to delete "this event" while deleting
the series.
What an occurrence does carry is a recurrenceId, which a one-off never
has. Master by its rule under either name, occurrence by its
recurrenceId. The tests carry the shapes the live server returned.
A probe against the live 0.16.19 says a one-off event comes back from an
expanded query as id "eaaaaai" with baseEventId "i" — an instance id of
its own, and a base that is a different event. The clause that treated a
differing base as an occurrence of a series would therefore have gone on
calling every event recurring, which was the bug.
So recurrence rules alone decide it. What that gives up is an expanded
instance that arrives without its rules attached; whether Stalwart does
that is still to be checked against a real series.
A one-time event opened for editing said "this is a recurring event —
changes apply to the whole series", and deleting one offered to delete
all occurrences of an event that has exactly one.
Three places asked whether an event had a baseEventId and took that for
recurrence. It isn't: the calendar loads its range with expandRecurrences,
and Stalwart puts a baseEventId on everything it returns that way, a
one-off pointing at itself included. The mock never sets the field at
all, which is why this only showed up against a real server.
They now share isRecurring(), which asks about recurrence rules, and
treats a base that is some other event as an occurrence of a series too
— so an expanded instance that travels without its rules is still
described honestly on the way to being deleted.
Fixes#25
"Send failed: Invalid property or value." is Stalwart's description for
invalidProperties, and on its own it says nothing about what to fix. The
SetError also carries a `properties` array naming the offending fields, which
every call site was discarding.
setErrorMessage appends them, and the 35 places that surfaced a SetError -
send, save draft, mailboxes, calendars, contacts, sieve, files, signature
images, sharing - now go through it.
