Description Josh Triplett 2012-07-19 17:44:17 UTC 
A meeting invite with non-trivial scheduling will often show up like this:

The calendar attached contains multiple items
To process all of these items, the file should be saved and the calendar imported
[Save]

This seems clunky, and really ought to work more smoothly.

Thanks for a bug report. This might be caused by the meeting invitation being sent together with its detached instances. I made the code to handle such case, but it's all. It'll require save&import (I think there's a bug requesting to import directly) when there are true multiple events in the attachment. There's also a bug requested ability to accept/tentative/decline from the calendar view, not only from the mail view. I do not have those bug number handy, I'm sorry.
