Summary0003707: Email reminders have little information and cause misunderstandings
Description

The reminders mails in sogo have some problems:

  • They have an empty body
  • Their "from" field is the creator of the event, not the calendar service
  • The subject does not state that it is a reminder

Users receiving these reminders are often confused, thinking a person has sent them an empty email by mistake.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Create event from SOGo web calendar UI.
  2. Check the "Reminder" box.
  3. Select the "Send an email" radio button.
  4. Save the event and wait for the email.
TagsNo tags attached.

Currently, many of our users are confused too, if they received a reminder e-mail.
It would be very nice to have some more information in the reminder e-mail, e.g.
what time the appointment is starting and that the e-mail is a reminder for an
appointment.

Maybe the reminder e-mail could look like this...
Subject:
"Reminder: <appointmentTitle> is starting in x minutes" or
"Reminder: <appointmentTitle> is starting at xx:xx"

Body:
"
Start: <startDate>
End: <endDate>
Summary: <summary>
"

Is something in that way possible?
