Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Problem: I have no way to turn off calendar notifications when other users add me to calendar events.
I use the calendar all the time. I check meetings directly in calendar regularly (almost every hour). So I don't need notifications that come to my email when someone creates/modifies a calendar event with me.
In the menu item Settings --> Notifications, the setting "A calendar event was modified" does not lead to the expected behavior. There are no other settings for disabling notifications about changes to calendar events.
Describe the solution you'd like
I don't want to receive a notification email when another user creates or edits a calendar event where I am in the attendees list. I'll be glad to see an item in the Settings --> Notifications section that will save me from this.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I was sure that the setting Settings --> Notifications --> "Calendar event was changed" should save me from emails with notifications about upcoming meetings. But this item does nothing.
Additional context
I discussed this issue in #3972. In the issue a detailed description of how to reproduce my problem (and screenshots).
But I was recommended to create a new feature request.
