Bug ID: 362958
Summary: After update KMail not interpreting Invite Emails
Product: kmail2
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: message list
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: craig.finnegan at gmail.com
Kmail doesn't seem to be interpretting Invite emails any longer, it looks to
have started after 16.04.x was released but even after updating today to
16.04.1 it is still not resolved and I cannot find any similar bug reports. I
receive many event invitations regularly and in the past month they only
display the content of the email and not the type Accept/Reject/etc. options as
is typical. These invites are coming from Outlook or Exchange and Kmail doesn't
show any attachments even though when I open the same emails in any other
client it shows the event invitation correctly as well as the invite.ics file,
whereas again in Kmail it does not for some reason. Any ideas on how to get
this back to working order? I've been accepting via my mobile email app but is
a poor workaround of course,
An example is I received an invite from someone on Exchange/Outlook and the
email in Kmail shows:
When: Wednesday, May 11, 2016 1:30 PM-2:00 PM. (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US &
Canada)
Where: Conference Call
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
And that's it, whereas when I check it on my phone app
(Aquamail/Kmail/Gmail/etc.) it shows the proper event invitation as well as the
invite.ics file which does not show under Kmail. Any ideas? Because I don't see
this reported elsewhere I'm wondering if it's an option somewhere or a glitch
added in the past couple updates that I'm missing although all the
compatibility options for exchange/outlook are checked under Kmail Misc
options. Thanks!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive invitation via email (may be just from those originating on Outlook
and/or Exchange)
Actual Results:
Just shows When and Where but no event information/invite.ics file
Expected Results:
For it to show the proper accept/reject/propose alternative time type of
options as well as the invite.ics actually showing (or at least interpreted)
Running the latest via Arch Linux v16.04.1-1 as of today, but also applied to
16.04.0-1 (Kmail shows 5.2.1 on About/Intro screen)
