Description
I'm not sure if it's correct in "server" component - but it does not only affect calendar or contacts, so it's either both - or "server", thus I report it here. Feel free to point me to re-insert it somewhere else.
Steps to reproduce
Import a vcf file that contains data that contains birthday data.
Actual behaviour
All birthday events in calendar are created with reminder (valarm).
Expected behaviour
The admin should be able to set not to create any EVENT for contacts -or-
The user should be able to opt not to create any EVENT for imported contacts -or-
The admin should be able to set not to create any REMINDER for contacts -or-
The user should be able to opt not to create remindes (valarms) while importing (contacts).
Server configuration
Debian jessie fully patched, Apache 2.4.10 prefork, PHP 5.6.24, MySQL 5.5.52, Nextcloud 10.0 (stable) freshly installed via Webinstaller.
