That's why I said:"We need some more opinions!" 
At the beginning of this thread, "I knew, that I knew nothing!" :-)

Okay! So it would be best (if possible), to let OL store its data as vcal? 

Perhaps a workaround could be to let kontact read the tnef-files of OL and let 
OL read the kontact-files?
The backdraw is: no write-support in at least one direction (kontact writing 
tnef-files)
