<title>Sending invitations by email</title>

<p>If you create an event in the calendar component, you can then send invitations to the attendee list through the Evolution email tool. The invitation card is sent as an attachment in iCal format.</p>

<p>To send an invitation, right-click on the entry in the calendar and choose <gui>Forward as iCalendar</gui>.</p>

<p>When you receive an invitation, you have several options:</p>

<list>
<item><p>Acceptera:</p><p>Indicates you will attend the meeting. When you click the OK button, the meeting is entered into your calendar.
</p></item>
<item><p>Acceptera preliminärt:</p><p>Indicates you will probably attend the meeting. When you click the OK button, the meeting is entered into your calendar, but is marked as tentative.
</p></item>
<item><p>Avslå:</p><p>Indicates you are unable to attend the meeting. The meeting is not entered into your calendar when you click OK, although your response is sent to the meeting host if you have selected the Send reply to sender option.
</p></item>
<item><p>Skicka svar till avsändare:</p><p>Select this option if you want your response sent to the meeting organizers.
</p></item>
</list>
