How to disable rsvp response from a created .ics file - outlook

I'm working with ICS files sending by email to our customers. I'd like to disable the RSVP response to attendees (our customers). Does someone know how to disable it?

As per https://icalendar.org/iCalendar-RFC-5545/3-2-17-rsvp-expectation.html, use
RSVP=FALSE
or omit the RSVP. The specification says the default is false.

How can I replace the originating e-mail adress in Azure Api Management Service?

In Api Management Service, when someone subscribes to an Api, they gey a mail from a no-reply address. By default, this mail is something like "apim-noreply#mail.windowsazure.com", I changed this in de settings to "no-reply#myorganization.com".
But now when a user receives an email, both these addresses are listed as the sender address. How do I fix it to only display my custom address and remove the default one (circled in red)?
I tried looking in the mail templates to see if it was present there, but it wasn't.
I tried finding a solution in Microsoft documentation but couldn't find anything.
I understand that you wanted to change the "Mailfrom" header to a value of your choice. Currently it is not possible. The "MailFrom" header contains information about the actual sender of the email since APIM sends the mail you will not be able to remove apim-noreply#mail.windowsazure.com due to security issues.

Logic Apps Email Trigger - Get original Alias

Found a very similar question here: Email aliases not returned as "To" address in logic app
TLDR: From within a logic app "When a new email arrives" trigger, How do I get the original alias that the email was sent to?
I have a logic app that creates a ticket based off an email sent to an outlook box. Now I want to be able to choose aspects of the ticket based off of whether or not the email was sent to the mailbox itself or an alias of the mailbox. The problem I'm having is that by the time logic apps gets a hold of the email, the alias address has already been replaced with the actual box's address ("alias1#place.com" -> "actualbox#place.com").
The actual mail in the inbox has the original email's alias information in the headers, but I can only get them by looking at the properties in outlook. I've tried to get the original "To" internetheader information both within logic apps (by exporting the email to blob storage and looking at headers there) and with the Microsoft Graph API. Sadly, the email exported by logic apps doesn't have the alias information and Graph API has pretty much every header but "To". At least one other person has lamented the lack of To
That said, the actual email still has the original alias information. Can someone help me get that information in logic apps without jumping through too many hoops? A many hoop solution is welcome if none other can be found though.
Use the Export email (V2) action from the Office 365 Outlook connector. This will give you the full message with original headers (including the actual To address)!
The flow here is, trigger on the incoming email, as you already are, then add the export email action providing the message id from that trigger to pull this specific email.
From there, you you'll have one big "body" property which you'll need to interrogate to find the To address.
Caveat on this though, it doesn't work when emails are sent between mailboxes in the same Office 365 tenant. Exchange Online will "helpfully" go, "I know that address... this is the address you wanted!"
What API are you using? In Outlook Object Model / MAPI / EWS, you need to retrieve the PR_TRANSPORT_MESSAGE_HEADERS MAPI property (DASL name http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0x007D001F)
We arrived at a many hoop solution.
The "Primary" email box now has some rules that look at the internet headers mentioned above (Message -> Properties -> look for 'To:').
If it finds an alias there, it will put the email in a corresponding folder for each alias.
Then we have logic apps listening to each of the alias folders which will then send the email's information to the _Core logic app that does the actual processing.

Magento 2 Order Confirmation Emails Not Sending

Currently having an issue with order confirmation emails not sending.
I have looked at various forums / solutions and these haven't worked.
My existing setup is using the MagePlaza SMTP to send email using Mandrill, this is working through their test function and also the Forgotten Password and Create account emails are being sent but not the Order Confirmation emails.
I am using IWD One Step checkout but have also disabled this to try with Magento default checkout and it doesn't work using either.
Asyncronous sending is set to disabled but I have also tried with it enabled. Both times no order emails are sent.
As I'm using Mandrill I have checked their API logs and the API request isn't being sent.
Any help/suggestions appreciated.
It's possible that the "From" address is wrong.
Goto Stores -> Configuration -> General -> Store Email Addresses and check if "Sales Representative" Email address is correct.
There is known bug in Magento 2.2.4/2.2.5/2.2.6 and you might be afected by it:
https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/14952.
TLDR: There is no from data set on email transaction and messeges aren't sending at all.

Create text/calendar type email that triggers accept/reject/ignore options

I can programmatically create an email with an .ics file attached. The email gets sent, the recipient clicks the .ics attachment to add it to their calendar. This is easily done.
I want to try and make Outlook behave a little different. When the user previews the message it detects that its calendar type and throws a prompt asking the user to take some action. This action decides if it gets pushed into the calendar. In a perfect world to have accept/reject/ignore options would be super sweet. Is it possible to construct/send and email in such a way that Outlook can treat it different from a standard email? E.G perhaps altering the type (CONTENT-TYPE:text/calendar)?
Note - I have seen a solution where the body contains a link to the .ics file informing the user about the calendar invite details. It then has a click here to Accept. This is nice because the .ics file does not have to be attached.
I am workign in VBScript/VBS world although Im not sure this is all that important. Has anybody done this is any sense. Is it even possible?
edited:
I ended up using the EASendMail component located here it has an autoCalendar property which works really well. It embeds the .ics file as a text/calendar and send the message as a text/calendar. The outcome is perfect, just like it was actually sent from the outlook. It previews with with the action buttons and even loads the meeting in Outlook at tentative waiting for action
Your email needs to follow a proper MIME structure for it to be recognized as an invitation. See Multipart email with text and calendar: Outlook doesn't recognize ics

Can outlook (web) notify me that I have email?

I have two email accounts. One of them I use every day. The other one, I have to fire up a VPN, authenticate through a firewall, and then run Outlook Web Access. Triple-yuck.
I'd like to set up a rule that says "Whenever I receive an email to annoyingaccount#company.com, send an email to mydailyaccount#myworkplace.com letting me know to check annoyingaccount." I do not want am not allowed to forward the actual email to mydailyaccount. I simply want a notice that email is waiting for me.
I see options that will let me forward the email or send a text message, but I don't see an option to just send a boilerplate email. Is there something I'm missing, or a "trick" I need to do, or am I just out of luck?
There is not an option like this in the Rules Wizard.
You can forward the email to your account and use rules to:
File the AnnoyingAccount email in a folder (so it is out of the way)
Display an a custom message in your MyDailyAccount email.
Take a look at the the display a specific message in the New Item Alert window option found on the 2nd screen of the Rules Wizard.
