Public bug reported:

I frequently revieve, via a mailing list, calendar invitations to
recurring meetings.  I decline most of these meetings.  When I use the
outlook365.office.com web interface, everything works fine.  Meetings
that I have declined do not appear in my calendar.

However, some of those declined meetings still appear in my Evolution
calendar, and nothing I do will get rid of them.  The invitation email
is in the trash.  If I open the email, I am given the option to decline
the meeting (again), but declining it does nothing.

If I right-click on the meeting in the calendar, I am able to open the
meeting panel, but the status says "Confirmed", which is false.  I can
change that to "Cancel", but saving the changes also does nothing.  I am
not able to close that panel unless I chose to discard all changes.

I can also try deleting meeting, but again, that does nothing.  I get an
error message that says,

"Failed to delete an event in the calendar “tt...@nvidia.com : Nvidia”

Cannot remove calendar object: The specified object was not found in the
store., The process failed to get the correct properties."

I don't know how to further debug this, nor do I know why some meetings on my 
calendar behave this way.  I suspect that somehow Evolution receives and 
automatically processes the invitation before I have a chance to manually 
decline it.
