I got the share invite, but when I click on the button it takes me to
office365.com where I had already configured the calendar. It doesn't
try and configure it within Evolution. (I'm on 3.40.4 BTW.)

I only have delegate access to the account so I can't configure it
directly and that permissions menu is not there for calendars shared to
me.

In the share invite there's an XML attachment "sharing_metadata.xml"
and that contains a number of IDs. I've tried both the one labelled
"FolderId" (about 93 characters) and "MailboxId" (about 400 characters)
but both come up with "Id is malformed" when I put them in the
"Subscribe to folder of other EWS user" dialog.  But they also don't
look like the folder ID of my own calendars that I can see - the one in
the invitation email is a string of hex digits, whereas it looks like
it should be alphanumeric.

I have also (obviously?) tried using the calendar name in the Subscribe
box and it doesn't like that.
