I want to find all invitations that I received to my IMAP mailbox / email account.
But the “Invitations” view in the right sidebar seems to only work for email accounts with an included calendar like Microsoft Exchange.
It does not show the invitations that I received to my IMAP mailbox / email account.
I tried creating a search folder searching for attachments named *.ics which works partly but it looks like not every invitation has such an attachment.
Probably depending on the program it was sent from.
Just wondering. All emails subject lines related to calendar invitations in my case either start with “Invitation:”, “Accepted”, or “Declined” (or the equivalent in French because I use both languages for invitations).
Thanks for the input.
This helps me finding more but still not all invitations with my search folder.
A lot of them have no prefix in the subject that I could use for finding them.
For example all of the ones I found before by searching for a *.ics attachment.
Probably highly dependent on the email client used for sending the invitations…
The first thing to consider is that the Invitations side-bar is showing items in calendars, not messages.
So, if you have received an invitation on an email account that has no associated calendar, there will be no calendar event to include in the side-bar.
In case of IMAP the invitations stay in the inbox after being accepted or rejected.
But that is fine I think.
My problem is how can I quickly and easily find all (unread) invitations.
When I am on vacation for 1 or 2 weeks I have up to 1000 emails in my inbox.
I need some time to read and process them of course.
But maybe in between those 1000 emails there are invitations for meetings for the first or second day after my return.
Then I will miss those because I might not read them in time.
Just happened yesterday.
Therefore I am still looking for a way to see all my invitations in the inbox.
