This actually worked for me, in that Evolution successfully acknowledged
a meeting request, but the bug for me was that the meeting request had
been sent to two people, I was the second, but Evolution acknowledged
the meeting for the first person.  I don't know how Evolution is meant
to know which of the people requested for the meeting is the user
(except by fuzzy matching on the participant's name) but in this case
my name matched exactly and it acknowledged the first participant
instead of me.
