            Bug ID: 339185
           Summary: cannot retrieve MS Exchange Calendar items: "Retrieval

                    message:"<msgid>
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.13.3
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Unfortunately my company email account is hosted by MS-Office365  (
outlook.office365.com ) .
I have this defined as a KMail "Receiving" IMAP account, and it works OK for
normal mail - but I'm having problems with other message types, eg. Calendar
notification messages .

I can see no entries in the 'Calendar' IMAP account sub-folder except these
error messages - here is an example:
<quote>
Subject: Retrieval using the IMAP4 protocol failed for the following message:4
From:     
To:    "jason.vas.dias at REDACTED.com" <jason.vas.dias at REDACTED.com>
Date:    Unknown
The server couldn't retrieve the following message:

Subject: "REDACTED "
From: "REDACTED" ("/O=EXCHANGELABS/OU=EXCHANGE ADMINISTRATIVE GROUP
(FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=0CFA1B03EE0F458BB01229EB4EF576B5-REDACTED")
Sent date: 8/12/2014 12:00:59 PM

The message hasn't been deleted. You might be able to view it using either
Outlook or Outlook Web App. You can also contact the sender to find out what
the message says.

Is kmail meant to support MS-Exchange functionality ? 
I thought nowadays it was, which is why I'm using KMail instead of Evolution .
If it is, it is evidently having problems .  I'd prefer not to have to switch
back
to Evolution just because of this issue.

Is there likely to be any fix forthcoming for this, or do I need to use
Evolution / OWA to get 
MS-Exchange Calendar messages?

Thanks for an otherwise problem-free mail client experience, a great
improvement on previous versions.
Regards, Jason
