Are recurring tasks not supported when syncing from Mailbox.org?

[Ohnefin]

I am trying to sync my Mailbox.org tasks with my Android phone.

Everything works as expected, except when I try to create a recurring task. When I create a task on the Mailbox.org website, it doesn't appear on my phone. When I create a task on my phone, I get a synchronization error.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this not supported at this time?

Thanks!

Tested it with an other app where it was possible at least to create the task but after synchronizing the reoccurance has disappeared.

So it is a problem on Mailbox.org's side.

Edit: Found the forum thread. https://userforum-en.mailbox.org/topic/1725-support-for-recurring-tasks-for-caldav-would-be-really-nice

Hi, sorry I haven't come back to this earlier. I am pretty busy but I have tested a bit with mailbox.org and with others. The thing is that mailbox.org is pretty messed up, not only regarding recurring tasks. It was so frustrating that I had to stop at one point because I couldn't even pinpoint the exact bad behaviors on their side. I might update the documentation and website with a warning about mailbox.org to only use it for simple use cases or not at all...

No worries!!!
Yeah, a warning would be helpful. Anyway... I like the app, and for the recurring tasks, I'm just handling them locally. Hopefully, Mailbox will fix the mess someday!
Thanks!
