Symptoms

• Start Outlook with Outlook Connector
  
  
• Log in as <USER_A> having subscribed to calendar of <USER_B>
  
  
• Create an event in calendar B by Right-Click -> New Event
  
  
• Enter summary "Event01 in CalB", location "here"
  
  
• Open "invite attendees",
  
  
• Click "to", fetch <USER_A> from global address list
  
  
• Click "send"

Message box appears "Outlook will not log the invitation ..."

• Click "OK"

Message box appears "Do you want to refresh your own calendar?"

• Click "Yes"

See event appearing in Calendar A

• Open the event in calendar A
  
  
• Open "status"

Observation: Only <USER_A> appears in the list of attendees, even in the place of the organizer.  The ICS export also shows <USER_A> as the Organizer.

When doing the same but, without refreshing your own calendar, which is selecting "No",  you may see the organizer correctly being described as "<USER_A> on behalf of <USER_B>".
