We have done a short test here and indeed the Message "No from address
provided" is shown for URL access from non-Horde attendees, but the
status of the attendee is updated in the original event. I'm pretty
sure this has correctly worked some time ago as we have tested this
case also.
The URL created is something like this:
https://webmail.kwsoft.de/kronolith/attend.php?c=3DHORDE-LOGIN-NAME&e=3DnVBArT1XD04=
fb4zHgcA7xQ4&u=3DEXTERNAL-MAILADDRESS&a=3Daccept
which looks pretty valid...
