&lt;div class="phork" id="695"&gt;
    &lt;div class="phork-file"&gt;
 &lt;div class="phork-content"&gt;
  
&lt;div class="document"&gt;


&lt;div class="section" id="problem"&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Problem&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I get a work e-mail with an calendar invitation and accept it. It is stored in my private calendar instead of the work calendar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="section" id="solution"&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Solution&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Calendars in Thunderbird's lightning allow the selection of an e-mail address. Invitations to that e-mail address are stored in that calendar.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I used the &amp;quot;provider for google calendar&amp;quot; addon for thunderbird: &lt;a class="reference external" href="https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-calendar/"&gt;https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-google-calendar/&lt;/a&gt;.
It does not support selecting the e-mail address.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But google has proper caldav support, so you do not need that plugin anymore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;hr class="docutils" /&gt;
&lt;div class="section" id="next-problem"&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Next problem&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lightning only supports &amp;quot;calendar collection&amp;quot; URLs, but not &amp;quot;principal collection&amp;quot; URLs. A calendar collection is one single calendar, a principal collection is a list of all available resources, i.e. calendars.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a work account at gmail, and 20+ colleagues whose calendars I have. I do not want to add each of those calendars manually.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="section" id="id1"&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Solution&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;TbSync addon for thunderbird: &lt;a class="reference external" href="https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/"&gt;https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/tbsync/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It supports principal collections, and I can comforably choose which calendar to show.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;div class="phork-meta"&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://p.cweiske.de/695/rev-raw/8b1912e3fae970fd74cf97efd476252ad8e47ab1/README.rst" style="float: right"&gt;view raw source&lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;a href="https://p.cweiske.de/695#README.rst"&gt;README.rst&lt;/a&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
