Hi,

This worked for me:

1. In your favourite browser, look at your google calendars in each of your google accounts. Ensure that if you have multiple Google accounts and/or multiple Google calendars, you are clear on which calendars are associated with which Google accounts and which email addresses. Make a note!

2. In Thunderbird, completely delete any Google calendars. (You'll be re-adding them later).

3. In Thunderbird's View menu: Set Display Attachments Inline and set Message Body As to Original HTML.

3. Tools / Options / Advanced Tab / Config Editor: Set calendar.google.enableEmailInvitations to true and ensure that calendar.google.sendEventNotifications is set to true. Restart Thunderbird.

4. In Thunderbird, recreate each your calendars (and tasks, if desired) using these settings: "On the Network", "Google" (not CalDAV); enter the correct email address corresponding to each calendar; in the Google pop-up, ALLOW Lightning to Manage your calendars and tasks; select the corresponding calendars and tasks you wish to subscribe to, (that are associated with the email address you entered).

5. In the Calendar tab, for each calendar, select properties and check/set the correct email address corresponding to that calendar. (If you can't find the option to do this, restart Thunderbird first).

6. Restart Thunderbird.

Test it (I used two different Google Calendars / accounts / emails addresses within Thunderbird to do this):

7. Create a Calendar entry in some other account and invite your google calendar self. In Thunderbird, within the received email, click Accept. Then, go to the calendar, hit Synchronize on the top left. Check by opening the new entry. Check, in the account that originated the calendar entry, that the invitation was accepted.

8 Create a Calendar entry in a Google calendar within Thunderbird and invite yourself (or someone else) at another email address. Hit Synchronize on the top left. Go to the destination email account or calendar and accept the invitation. Go back to the Thunderbird calendar, hit Synchronize, and ensure that the invitation was accepted.

Good luck!
