I'm using Thunderbird 87.0b3 and DavMail 5.5.1-3299 on Manjaro Linux 21.0. DavMail is using EWS protocol. In the O365 Web interface, the calendar invites show as below for example, with HTML link for "Join Webex Meeting" preserved:

In the Thunderbird Calendar, the same event shows as below for example, with the HTML link for "Join Webex Meeting" stripped. Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks.

Just want to confirm that this issue is fixed in TB 88.0b2. WebEx and Microsoft Teams URLs in calendar invites are shown in full.

TB rendering of html invites is being fixed, and should appear in the next beta:

Thanks. That bug discusses Microsoft Teams invites and shows the fix will be in the Beta 89 branch. Does it also address WebEx invites?

I don't think the fix will apply only to Teams, but more generally to invitations that include html-formatted message bodies.
