For the dummy event "Cologne"

1) Horde sends:

Subject: Declined: Cologne

wrobel at example.com has declined.

2) Kolab sends:

Subject: Declined: Cologne

wrobel at example.com has declined the invitation to the following event:

Cologne


Version 2) seems to be much more readable and understandable to me.  
Version 1) does not tell me that the message is referring to an event  
at all. This may cause difficulties if a delegate of mine (e.g.  
secretary) is also accessing my mail account and cannot judge what the  
message might be about.

Cheers,

Gunnar
