http://www.zvon.org/tmRFC/RFC2445/Output/chapter4.html#sub3sub11 gives
the details on what characters need to be escaped in iCalendar text.
We probably are missing decoding of these escapes, also.

it seems that kronolith doesn't escape commas in the description field
of the attached .ics file, so libical fails to parse the field properly.
here's an example .ics attachment (i edited the email-adresses):

if i view the .ics file in sylpheed-claws with vcalendar plugin which
uses libical to view it, i only get the text "this is the description
field" in the output, the rest is cut off.
