Steps to reproduce:

  1. Get an emailed Google Calendar invite meant for an email address that is not the top email address listed in the side bar.
  2. Click on the Accept button above the email

Actual results:

Accepted the invite on behalf of the very top email address.

Expected results:

Accept the invite on behalf of the email address to which the invite was sent.

Probably because you have the calendars associated with the default email address account. Which would be the top email address in the Folder pane.

Right-click on the calendar in the Calendar list.
Select Properties and check what email address is associated with your calendar.
All my calendars except my Google CalDAV calendar are associated with the top email address listed in the Folder pane.
The test invite I sent to my Google email was accepted in the Google calendar.
Maybe setting up a separate calendar for the different email addresses would help.

Unfortunately, I'm not that familiar with invites.

Confirming.

burningserenity, thanks for filing this bug.
"Top email address" is default account at the top of folder pane. Indeed that is used for reply and should not, reply should be sent using the email of the invited attendee.
