Description
Steps to reproduce
With calendar invitations sending enabled create appointment and switch to e-mail reader (i.e. Thunderbird) to see that external content is blocked there.
Expected behavior
E-mail messages with calendar events (invitations, upgrades, cancellations) should not contain any links to external images. HTML tags with external images should be removed from message HTML content to simplify things (embedding images as attachments will make messages bigger and should be avoided also).
Actual behaviour
Every e-mail message send from calendar (invitation, cancellation) contains 3 HTML img tags with src pointing to nc installation i.e.:
https://nextcloud.domain.here/core/img/logo/logo.png?v=3
https://nextcloud.domain.here/core/img/caldav/title.png
https://nextcloud.domain.here/core/img/caldav/time.png
Such images are not necessary for event communication to work and may generate problems (mail reader warnings, antispam filter reactions, etc.).
