            Bug ID: 310706
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.9
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: korganizer doesn't send outlook compatible invitations
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: jon.moon at cantab.net
          Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: libkdepim
           Product: kdepim

In my configuration I have selected the 'Send Invitations in the mail body'
option in kmail's 'Misc/Inivitations' tab.

korganizer ignores this.

After debugging, it looks as though the code in
kdepim/calendarsupport/mailclient.cpp is looking at the 'mailviewerrc' config
file, whereas kmail stores its config in kmail2rc.

So I was able to workaround this problem by adding the following lines to
mailviewerrc:

[Invitations]
LegacyBodyInvites=true

However AFAICT there's no GUI option to configure this, and worse the GUI
option which exists is ignored.

Should the code be changed to look at kmail2rc instead?

There are no other references to mailviewerrc AFACIT:

~/kde$ ls
akonadi-1.8.1  kdepim-4.9.3  kdepimlibs-4.9.3  kdepim-runtime-4.9.3
~/kde$ find . -type f | xargs grep 'mailviewerrc'
./kdepim-4.9.3/messageviewer/messageviewer.kcfg.cmake:  <kcfgfile
name="mailviewerrc" />
./kdepim-4.9.3/calendarsupport/mailclient.cpp:  KConfig config( "mailviewerrc"
);


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable 'Send Invitiations in Mail body' configuration in KMail's
Misc/Invitations tab
2. Create an invitation in korganizer to another person
3. Agree to send an e-mail
Actual Results:  
Invitation is sent as an attachment

Expected Results:  
Inivitation is sent inline
