Bug description

Hi,

On NC 29.0.0 beta 3, Calendar events are a bit unreliable. I create an event and add another user as an invitee. The event doesn't show on his calendar. At the same time, lots of this shows up in the log when creating the event:

{"reqId":"R7laQWgrMPrjeqLisVWl","level":1,"time":"2024-03-16T15:44:14+00:00","remoteAddr":"10.100.21.115","user":"admin","app":"no app in context","method":"GET","url":"/ocs/v2.php/apps/notifications/api/v2/notifications","message":"Notification was not parsed by any notifier [app: ransomware_protection, subject: help_requested]","userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:123.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/123.0","version":"29.0.0.9","data":[]}

I have uninstalled the ransomware_protection app, and still have the same behavior.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create calendar event and add another user as invited
  2. The event doesn't show up, the user doesn't get invitation
Expected behavior

The user should get a notification by mail and the event should show up in his calendar.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the report. Start by reproducing the missing invitee event and notification on the stated Nextcloud, PHP, MySQL, and LDAP/SSO setup, then trace the calendar invitation and notification logs. Done means the invitee receives the mail and sees the event in the calendar.
