Did you file a bug for this? 

If you do please include a link to this thread
<http://mail.opengroupware.org/pipermail/users/2008-May/018919.html>

I think the good behavior would be to apply the default defined read
access when the appointment is written to the Overview folder.  I
suspect that is the folder usually used for sync of calendar events and
it doesn't represent a specific permission context (like public,
private, and Team folders do).
