Microsoft Teams Invites not showing up in Gmail

cld025 +1 I'm still having the same issue. And I don't want to have the sender edit my email when they invite me.

cld025 I added the following as a new UserVoice suggestion, since Microsoft has moved to a new platform and the old suggestion is no longer there.

When a calendar invite is sent from Microsoft Exchange (aka 0365/M365/Outlook) it sends an email with an embedded mime type that looks something like the following Teams invite. Note that it does NOT include an attached *.ics file as part of the multipart/alternative. In addition, notice it does not include any information regarding the date and time of the appointment in the email text.

Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_some_multipart_id_"

--_some_multipart_id_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Generally, this email will result in a calendar invite when received by en email client. However, when the email is received by Google's Gmail app for Android on behalf of an email provider that does not have an integrated calendar, such as Yahoo or AOL, the calendar invite is not displayed. In the case of a Microsoft Teams invite like above, the recipient will receive an email with a message the gives a link, but with no information as to when the meeting will occur, and no attachments.

Google's Gmail app does nothing to assist the user in this case. Alternatively, Apple Mail will create a downloadable attachment called "mime-attachment.ics", so that recipients can use the attachment to add the event to their calendar. Interestingly, when such an email is sent to a Gmail address, Google will actually update the email and create a downloadable attachment called "invite.ics", which is available on the web application.

Hi,

Was a final solution for this problem ever identified? I have been encountering the problem within the last 2 weeks and would like to know what steps to take to resolve it on my computer.

Also, I have noticed that it doesn't occur when I check the same messages on my phone.  All the relevant MS Teams Invite meeting details display on my cell phone in the Gmail messages App.

Thank you.

cld025  I've been having the same issue, whereas other members of my team also using Gmail do not.  I asked the sender to add a "+label" to my email address in the invite, which appears to have fixed it.  I'm guessing whatever was wrong was cached, tied to my email address; adding a "+label" makes it look like a different address and so avoids the issue.

If you aren't familiar, you can add "+anything" to a gmail email address, just before the "@" sign, and the email will still be delivered to the original address.  For example, if your email address is "example@gmail.com", any email sent to "example+test@gmail.com" will also be delivered to your inbox.  This is useful if you want label certain emails in gmail, or track who is sharing your email address, etc.  This also works if you have Google for Domains, and you get your mail via the GMail web interface, but without a gmail address.  For example, "user@example.com" and "user+test@example.com" are equivalent.

Is this all Teams invites from any sender, or just one particular sender please?
