This turned out to be pretty quick to narrow down. When creating an event with
an attendee (or more, that works the same way), eGroupware rewrites the event
and in particular the ATTENDEE properties. I couldn't find how the rewrite is
done but for sure if you only specify an email address you end up with an
invalid (as from two iCalendar validators I've tested) VEVENT that contains an
EMAIL property that doesn't seem to be part of the standard (RFC5545).

If that works with an iPhone is likely due to a more lax validation. So either
KCalCore is modified to accept this data (I'm not eager to add some specific
workarounds, and it's unlikely to be well accepted by other devs), or I nag
eGroupware devs to have this fixed. Guess what I'll do ? :)

I'll keep you informed via this report.

Cheers,
Grégory
