By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description John A. Sullivan III 2010-10-14 18:41:51 CDT 
We are using Kontact with a Zimbra 6.0.7 backend.  When we save appointments with an "&", e.g., "Meet with C & J", they initially save properly but, as soon as synchronization occurs, it is changed to "Meeting with C & J"

I am guessing Zimbra is storing it with the substitution character sequence and, when it synchronizes, KOrganizer reads it literally instead of doing the substitution.

Is this report still valid?

If valid, paste the relevant source of the message - it must be encoding related. I'm planning to have a look into it because of similar issues, when I find time next
