I think I have nailed the test scenario that demonstrates the issue
clearly.

Saving the actual ICS attachment from two meeting requests sent from a
Google gmail account to my work email (In evolution,  Test 9 showing a
reply option and Test 5 not showing a reply option) I see the following
output which shows they are identical except for body content and
datestamps.

The google calendar associated with the gmail account is active in
evolution, so evolution can see the events.   It seems when Evolution
can "see" the calendar, it chooses to include the reply option.  But
when it can't find the event it does not.   This appears to be the bug,
as the reply option should be present in both cases.

Attached are screenshots from evolution on how they look in the GUI, and
I note that the one that shows a Reply options is "Found" in the
calendar.  The attached screenshots correlate to the diff below of these
ics events  and you can see the ID in the screenshot.   I saved the .ICS
right from the emails and performed the diff on my command line.   No
modification was made as the diff does not include any of the source or
destination email addresses.

Title:
  [regression] no option to send reply for accepted calendar invites

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Email calendar invites do not present an option to reply to the sender
  upon acceptance (or other selection) and evolution sends nothing back
  to the sender.

  In Natty (2.32) and earlier the email responses with subject
  "Accepted: xxx" could be seen in the sent box.   Perhaps the
  correlation between the outbound email account (imapx) and the inbound
  google calendar account is not being made?  In this case the email is
  not gmail (Verio qmail IMAP+) and a matching Google Calendar account
  (username matching email).


  Senders are unaware of acceptance as a result, defeating the purpose
  of the calendar invite.
