Yep - this has nothing to do with exchange itself.

When someone sends you an exchange invitation, it is an ICS attachment inside KMail. \
KMail should be able to handle these ICS attachments.

It has nothing at all to do with "Exchange support". Sure, we have an exchange server \
here, but I connect to it via IMAP.

"Exchange support" would mean when I accept that invitation that it would be added on \
the exchange server's calender. That would be super, but for now I would be happy if \
the appointment was even added o my LOCAL calender correctly. 

As per my above comment - this does work IF you set the timezone dropdown in \
KOrganizer (settings->Configure KOrganizer->Time & Date). 

My comment still stands - WHY DOES THIS DROPDOWN EVEN EXIST - it is confusing, to a \
user. I don't understand at all the technical reason why KOrganizer can not use the \
same timezone as the rest of the OS. Why would it ever need it's own special \
timezone? 

What makes it even worse is it does not seem to even default to the OS's timezone - \
this is why all my appointments were wrong until I changed it.
