Mmmm,  testing I do see something wrong.

If I create an appointment I can add people from the address book
(specifically from the accounts folder).  Free/Busy information seems to
load.

If I save the appointment and go back in I don't seem to have any F/B.
And if I right click on a contact and select "Lookup Contact" I just get
a little error message "Could not find a contact with this e-mail
address".
