Allow synchronization of alarms to be reminded after event start #384

I've been using outlookcaldavsynchronizer to sync my calendars for a while. The calendars are managed on a Synology DSM and maintained via the IOS calendar client, the Synology web interface and Outlook. This works very well so far.

However, I keep getting the warning message Alarm has an invalid duration or is not before event start. Ignoring. if I want to be reminded for an all-day appointment at 8:00 a.m. on the day of the event, for example.

Why are alarms not allowed during the appointment period? Can this be customized?

It's an Outlook limitation, not on our side. So we have to ignore iCalendar alarms after the event start time.
