Description

Expected behavior

Tell us what should happen

Calendar Invitations send from MS-Exchange-Servers should be recognized so that they
could be imported into the calendar like other Invitation E-Mails as well.

Actual behavior

Calendar Invitations from MS-Exchange-Servers are not recognized. Not even the ICS-Attachment is shown as E-Mail-Attachment.

Research direction

Compare this message with an invitation that is recognized, then verify that Exchange invitations are shown as attachments and imported as calendar events.
