I don't think this is correct. Cyrus doesn't need to know anything about
calendaring stuff, because it's the connector that saves the information in
some way. Try copying a office document to your Cyrus IMAP server, this will
also work...

So Cyrus doesn't matter - I believe - what kind of information is stored,
but it must be stored using IMAP commands... :-)

And if you have a look at the Bynari Insight Connector Product Information
Page you will see:

"
Seamless Outlook Integration
 Email
 Calendar
 Contacts
 Public Folders
 Scheduling
 Notes
 Offline mode
"

This tells me, that I'm right... :-)

Best,
 Oliver
