Other people accepting event invitation results in email saying "invitation updated"

[georgehrke]

originally reported by @jancborchardt

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an event and invite other people
2. Have a person confirm their attendance (or reject, I guess)
3. Check your emails

Expected behaviour

You get an email saying: »Christoph confirmed the invitation« or »Christoph rejected the invitation«

Actual behaviour

GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #2338 (Accept calendar invitation directly in the invitation email ), #10781 ([Nc14] Accepting an invitation from an email does not add the event to the calendar), #4880 (Calendars invitations for event in shared calendars), #9942 (Include accept / decline links in CalDAV invitation emails), and #3830 (No calendar invitation send for event in shared calendars ).

@georgehrke are you still the person to look into it? :)

[georgehrke]

Yes :)

@georgehrke Thanks for working on this.
Currently I'm not receiving any emails when a participant accepts my invitation.
Any idea what could cause this?
I've already enabled all the calendar-related email-notification settings in the user settings. However, they're not even showing up in the activity stream, so this does not seem to be an email-related issue. Sending out invites also works fine. I can additionally confirm that the event is updated correctly.

nextcloud.log also didn't reveal a reason for this behaviour.

Anybody still working on this?

We use NC heavily for recurring events with > 20 participants and the system generates emails "you have been invited" to all of them for each status change.

Apart from the obvious bug (wrong subject / headline), this behaviour (who receives these attendee-status-changes) should be configurable.

@kartoffelheinz A pull-request to fix this problem would be much appreciated!

Any progress on this issue? Right now, the invitation email notifications are barely usable..
