Have you enabled the offline cache feature for the calendar? Do you get any error messages in Tools > Error Console during the steps described above?

Comment 3

[psmith]

Yes I have offline cache enabled. And I get the following errors just by clicking the Invite attendee button.

And I just noticed that when I create a meeting and try to invite attendees that for me it shows one of my other Identity email addresses (see lightning1.jpg) and not my main email address that I selected in in the calendar setup (see lightning2.jpg).

Attachment: Other Identities for Main Thunderbird account

Shows my other identities including [e-mail] which shows up as me in a new event instead of [e-mail], my main account and the address selected in calendar setup.

Comment 9

[psmith]

Ok ignore everything I was saying about identities and the wrong on showing up as me when I click the Invite Attendees button in the New Event window.

I had a setting wrong and corrected it.  Now my main identity does show up as me when I click the Invite Attendees button.

But the problem still persists.  When I click Save and Close, I do not get an email confirmation box (the one that asks about supporting Outlook 2000), no email in sent items, and recipient never receives a meeting invite.

The only workaround at the moment is disabling offline cache. Ought to be fixed in Lightning 1.8.
