Bug Description
I frequently receive, via a mailing list, calendar invitations to recurring meetings. I decline most of these meetings. When I use the outlook365.
However, some of those declined meetings still appear in my Evolution calendar, and nothing I do will get rid of them. The invitation email is in the trash. If I open the email, I am given the option to decline the meeting (again), but declining it does nothing.
If I right-click on the meeting in the calendar, I am able to open the meeting panel, but the status says "Confirmed", which is false. I can change that to "Cancel", but saving the changes also does nothing. I am not able to close that panel unless I chose to discard all changes.
I can also try deleting meeting, but again, that does nothing. I get an error message that says,
"Failed to delete an event in the calendar “<email address hidden> : Nvidia”
Cannot remove calendar object: The specified object was not found in the store., The process failed to get the correct properties."
I don't know how to further debug this, nor do I know why some meetings on my calendar behave this way. I suspect that somehow Evolution receives and automatically processes the invitation before I have a chance to manually decline it.
