I believe this is fixed in KOrganizer 5.7.2 / KDE Apps 17.12.2 / KDE Frameworks
5.43.0 / Akonadi 1.13.0 (Fedora 27).

Maybe

, as mentioned in bug #384122, is related.

The issue was that the email addresses of all attendees were fine individually,
but they got smudged together into one string (separated by commas), which made
something further down the stream trip.

While I understand that the referenced commit adds better error reporting, the
problem itself (some part communicating the attendee email addresses in a
format that the next component in line does not understand / reject, while
sending out the invitations) does not seem to be fixed.

now you should see a warning dialog with a real explanation as to the failure
condition, instead of failing silently.

if the users think the email address is just fine, then the bug is with the
email validator and not with korganizer

Looking at the commit, I wonder whether it really addresses the "multiple
attendees result in a broken event" problem.  Can you please confirm that?

Judging from comment #1 and comment #3, the issue appears to have been multiple
people in the list of attendees would be joined them together into one attendee
at some point in the pipeline.  Hence the validation function would complain
that an email address may not contain a comma, which might be a legit
complaint, but was not actually input by me like that.

The console output is:

Input: "Name Family , N\xC3\xA4me Family
, Name Family , Name Family
"
Error: "The email address you have entered is not valid because it contains an
unexpected comma."

The names and email addresses are all different.  What is notable is the 2nd
address, which contains an 'ä' (A-umlaut).  But I assume the "unexpected comma"
refers to the separator of the email addresses, which is for whatever reason
being treated as part of the email address?

do you see a message in your console?
there should be a critical string printed in your console "Publish failed.
Unable to publish the item ... "

can you show me that entire string?

Some more poking around in the event suggests that the problem is related to
the number of attendees: If I reduce the list to only one item, the email gets
send when changing the event and pressing "Apply".  When I add a second item to
the list of attendees and press "Apply", nothing happens.  It appears not to be
related to the actual email-address or names that are on the attendee list: No
matter which ones I remove the email gets only send when there is only one
person left on the list, and it does not matter which person that is.  I can
also recreate the event from scratch, using the same title, location and
description, and the issue will always be the same.  I also tried altering the
title slightly or shortening the description, but that had no apparent
influence.
