While having another look at this I tested this on my Arch VM and noticed that when accepting a meeting request an error is shown that the reply could not be sent. This is normal as the IMAP account is confured to use sendmail (which is not configured). The error dialog gives the option to try again, save to outbox or edit. When choosing edit I can change the sender. My desktop however did have sendmail (badly) configured, so I didn't got an error message. However the mail itself was never sent out. So in my case I can work around this by setting an invalid SMTP host (such as localhost or something else that doesn't actually run an SMTP server). This way I get the error and I can change the address before sending. Another thing I just noticed is that Evolution appears to look at the 'From' header instead of the 'To' header when replying to meeting requests. Consider these 2 scenarios, in both cases there are 3 accounts configured, 1 for IMAP, 1 for Google SMTP, 1 for the SMTP of my ISP. First scenario: A random person sends a meeting request, when clicking accept, Evolution replies using the (internal only) IMAP account. This is the case I described in my first mail. Second scenario: I send a meeting request from my Google account to my ISP address, the request is received using the IMAP account. When replying, evolution uses my Google account, instead of the IMAP like in the first case, or the ISP account that is in the To header. I submitted Gnome bug 695332: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695332 [...] Regards, Steven
