Send Meeting Invitation from Outlook to a SharePoint Calendar Timezone Error

Good day, gentlemen!

I am facing a Meeting Invitation from Outlook to a SharePoint Calendar Timezone Error.

The Outlook TimeZone Invitation is UTC-03:00 and when the event is registered on a SharePoint Calendar it is appearing as UTC-00:00.

Has anyone seen this error before?

Please, check the Scenario Details below.

A. The Server Scenario:

  1.       In order to enable the Incoming Email Service on SharePoint Foundation 2010, I added the SMTP Feature on the Windows 2008 R2 Server;
  2.       I set up the SMTP Service accordingly to the Alias used on the server
  3.       I enabled the Incoming Email Service properly on SharePoint Foundation 2010 Central Administration;
  4.       The Server Time Zone is set up as Brazilian Time (UTC-03:00);
  5.       The Default Time Zone of all the Web Applications are Brazilian Time (UTC-03:00);
  6.       Latest Windows Updates are applied on the Server.

B. The Site Collection Scenario:

  1.       I created a Site Collection and a calendar with incoming e-mail enabled;
  2.       The default Time Zone of the site is Brazilian Time (UTC-03:00);

C. The Error Scenario:

  1.       I send an invitation whit Brazil Time Zone (UTC-03:00) (Start Time: 03:00 PM End Time: 4:00 PM) from Outlook to the SharePoint Calendar created;
  2.       The event on the SharePoint Calendar has its Started Time and End End with UTC 00:00 (Start Time: 07:00 PM End Time: 8:00 PM), therefore, with a different time than the Outlook Calendar.
