Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you are doing. Description of Problem: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1.Login to evolution as test1 1. Create a meeting, invite one more user under 'Invitation's tab for ex test2. 2. Then enter appropriate data for summary and time, then click on 'OK' and then on 'Send' 3. Mail is sent to test2 id. 4. Goto 'Sent Items', open the mail sent, click on 'OK' button, generates mail into test1 id as test1 accepted meeting request. Generating mail does not make any sense and, that 'Accept' and 'OK' button should be disabled in that 'Mail' as well as mail should not be generated Update later how 'Outlook' will behave, even if outlook behaves same this bug has to be fixed Actual Results: Expected Results: Do anything on contents of mail in 'Sent Items' nothing should happen How often does this happen? Always Additional Information:
Need to find out more on the expected behaviour for this.
Can we test this on Outlook?
sush , while trying this on outlook , an error message saying "As a meeting organiser , you donot have to respond to the meeting " is issued.... Thank you..
Changing the severity as user would do this normally from the sent items.
The "evolution-exchange" package only supports Exchange 2000 and 2003 servers. Newer versions such as Exchange 2007 and 2010 are not supported by "evolution-exchange". It is required to use the package "evolution-ews" (or to some extend "evolution-mapi") for newer version fo Exchange servers. If the problem/request described in this report still happens with a recent version of "evolution-ews" or "evolution-mapi", please add a comment to this report (and update the "product" setting accordingly if possible). There are currently no plans to continue the development of the package "evolution-exchange", so this report will soon be closed as WONTFIX. Thanks for your understanding and sorry that the reported problem was not solved in time in the package "evolution-exchange".
evolution-exchange only supports the older Microsoft Exchange server versions 2000 and 2003. The last stable release of evolution-exchange was 3.4.4 which took place a year ago. evolution-exchange is now deprecated and not under active development anymore. It is unlikely that there will be any further active development. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again. Also feel free to reopen this ticket and change the "Product" field accordingly if the reported issue still happens with a recent version (newer than version 3.6) of one of those Exchange backends that are still supported. Please see https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/3.8/exchange-connectors-overview.html for more information on available backends.
