We've been using Horde with Kronolith for some time now, and
everything is working pretty well. The thing is, we have one MAC user,
on Yosemite, that's experiencing the problem described on this ticket.
Every time he confirms, rejects, or interacts in any way with an
event, everyone receives a million notifications about it. Is there
any way to avoid this? He uses Calendar(former iCal) and his iPhone to
manage his calendars.
however horde should not send so many emails especially if set in
user prefs not to send any notifications
small companies is: just use the web interface! do not try to use
with os clients, it generates unexpected behaviour especially on OSX.

it's own software anymore ... and on OSX there is no real alternative,
except thunderbird lightning - but which might be to "techie" to
normal users

works. We could implement a separate planning infrastructure just for
internal users, but noone has come up with an implementation or
intent to sponsor such development yet.

still somewhere on my "do when I have time" list, though sponsoring
would definitely help speed it along.

with every new version iCal for non-iCloud users gets worse and worse ...

Kronolith places the event to the known user's calendar as tentative.
Only external users (email adresses not known by horde user
management) should get emails (ONCE or on usefull updates ;-)

I guess you use iCal to access Kronolith via CalDAV? You didn't
mention this but from the context this is what I assume.

When accepting invitations by email (ics) with OSX (10.10.1) using
iCal the event initially gets added and auto-accepted (!) to the wrong
calender and and email is send out to all attendees and the organizer.
Even if "Don't send me a notification if I've added, changed or
deleted the event" and "Choose if you want to be notified of new,
edited, and deleted events by email" in the user prefs (Calendar >
Notifications) are disabled.
then, when moving the event to the correct calendar (all are horde
carddav calendars) the event gets cancelled (sends email to attendees
and organizer) and accepeted again (sends email to attendees and
organizer).
this behaviour seems to be new. it's unclear to me why iCal is
triggering these emails (maybe https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/3965#c15
?), even if all notifications are turned off.
another question: isn't horde able to handle internal invitations
(users are known to horde!) just internally, without the need to send
emails?
A user creates a new event in iCal or horde webinterface and Kronolith
places the event to the known user's calendar as tentative. Only
external users (email adresses not known by horde user management)
should get emails (ONCE or on usefull updates ;-)
