Calendar spamming collaborators about old meetings
Hello, yesterday was my first time using evolution or gnome-calendar. I use gnome (shell) in debian testing (evolution 3.49.2), clicked on the date at the top, then "today", and apparently this started evolution. I created a new calendar caldav account with the default options and gave it my zimbra url and email. There was an option "server handles meeting invitations" which I did not touch, though maybe I should have. My calendar seemed to show ok.
At midnight, I started getting an avalanche of "Delivery Status Notification (Failure)" emails about meetings 12 years ago involving people who have changed job since. And that's just the failures, people still there have received even more spam. Looking at the messages, I have no idea what new information was being sent. Did it somehow believe that other participants had never gotten the information about these old meetings? If so, there should be safeguards against this kind of massive spam.
I don't know if the issue is in evolution, evolution-data-server, or if there is an interaction with gnome-calendar, so you may need to reassign the issue. But please do something about it. Massively spamming all of one's company and clients just because we are testing some calendar front-end using default options is really not good.
