Are you using SMTP authentication for submitting messages? If so, the  
notification system is badly broken.

The problem is that it is not possible to configure a password for the  
$conf[reminder][from_addr] in horde/kronolith/config/conf.php. Since  
the alarm system will not have access to the (IMAP) password for the  
calendar owner either, it is impossible to set a correct MAIL FROM  
address. The last time I checked, it used the RCPT TO address (see Bug  
#12678).
