Description

This might seem out of scope for khal but hopefully not.

This is the use-case:

  • Open email with invitation in mutt
  • View attachments
  • khal display the invitation and it's details
  • khal prompts the user for accept/reject or do nothing

There are several (only two actually that I've found)
such tools that integrate (somewhat) with mutt that
let one view and/or (maybe) respond to invitations.

Thoughts?

Research direction

The issue describes a khal and mutt workflow for viewing .ics invitations and responding to them under RFC 5546. No files, tests, or entry points are named, so begin by clarifying the intended scope and integration boundary. Done would need a defined way to display invitation details and prompt for accept, reject, or no action.
