Description of problem: SSIA Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-data-server-2.28.3-15.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. get an invitation via email 2. accept it into CalDAV calendar 3. Actual results: when looking into the calendar via web UI, it's still in New state Expected results: event state changes to Accepted Additional info:
Created attachment 523991 [details] RHEL 2.28 dump
Created attachment 523992 [details] F15 3.0.3 dump
Created attachment 524264 [details] proposed evo patch for evolution; Evolution 3.0.3 provides a user email entry for a CalDAV calendar, which is used to add the attendee in a response for cases when it's missing. The 2.28.3 doesn't have it, and it adds an empty attendee with no address, which seems to be filtered out before the component is put through CalDAV backend to the server, as mine tests shows this empty attendee being added into the event. This is the most I can do with 2.28.3 unless breaking too many things around CalDAV calendar setup. This ensures that there will never be used the empty address, but the default mail address is used for cases when the attendee wasn't found. The right fix will come to RHEL7.

Hi Suzanne, I ask you to revisit the decision as patch is ready and it pre-tested by me (I use scratch build of evolution with this patch applied without problems). Thank you
