#359 Unable to accept/decline event invitations in Lightning

I'm using DavMail 5.2 with Thunderbird 60.5.1 and Lightning 6.2.5.1. I'm able to see my Outlook (Office 365) calendar in Lightning and if I create an event in Lightning, it appears in my calendar and vice-versa.

However, when I receive an invitation to an event, this always appears in my calendar as "tentative". Regardless of whether I accept or reject it through Lightning, the status always shows "tentative". Status only changes when I change it through the Outlook Calendar Web interface.

Ideally I would like my acceptance/rejection through Lightning to also update the Web version of the calendar.

Please let me know if I have configured it wrong or if there is any other information I can provide that will help understand this. Thank you.

    I'm not sure if it matters but the events this happens with are both recurring events and one-off events.

    Vikram! I think I have the same problem as you. I went into "Advanced" in the DavMail UI and unchecked "Automatic CalDav Scheduling". Hopefully that will solve my problem, i'm on office365 too.

    EDIT: I'm also checking "Edit Caldav notifications".

    That worked! I get "It's been overwritten since it was opened" and other nonsense dialogs I click through sometimes, but that's okay. Everything works now!
