Request response replies do not appear to be accessible when sending a meeting invite from a group?

When sending a meeting invite from a Group Calendar, it appears that the Accept/Tentative/Decline responses from group members are 'silent' - meaning they do not go back to the group conversation folder or to the inbox of the user who created the meeting in the Group Calendar.

I realize you can click into the invite to see who accepted or declined but often we have users who choose 'Edit the Response Before Sending' and their assumption is that we'll get their message.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know of a workaround? Or maybe I'm missing something? TIA!
