When I am invited to a calendar event, I receive two messages: One in the calendar itself, and another via an e-mail. This staffs my inbox. How can I achive that calendar invitations are received solely in the calendar?
Thank you!
MacBook Air, iOS 8.1.3
Have you tried turning off "invitation messages in Notification Center" in the Calendar > Preferences > Alerts? And of course, Notification Center Pane?
Thank you for the hint. I tried, but with no success. The system continued sending e-mails:(
Is this an Exchange invitation? If so, to my knowledge that is the default action. It is set that way for you to respond to the invitation. The event that shows in your calendar is tentative until you accept it.
I am using Apple mail, but indeed, many invitations arrive from Exchange.
I understand that the event is tentative until I approve or decline. The problem is, that I receive two messages: One in the calendar, and another one in a separate email- This often results in inbox-stuffing.
I'm sorry, I missed that you are using a Mac. I was referring to actions in Outlook on a Windows computer. I'll leave now. 😊

No. Actually, you don't. You get one. It's an email with the invitation in it. OS X knows it's an invitation, and automatically adds the invite to your calendar. If you create a calendar event and send an invitation to the intended attendees, it sends an email to them with the invite attached.
You can't have one without the other because they are one thing.
Want no e-mail when invited to a calendar event
