If you’re using Amazon WorkMail and find that meeting invites automatically appear in your calendar before you accept them, you’re not alone. Unfortunately, there is no specific setting in WorkMail to stop this from happening. This behavior is common across most email and calendar systems.
If your goal is to prevent unwanted or spam meetings from cluttering your calendar, here are some practical steps you can take:
First, when you receive a meeting invite you don’t want, decline it directly from your calendar. Just double-click the invite and select “Decline.” This way, the meeting won’t show up in your schedule anymore.
Second, if the unwanted meetings are already in your calendar, simply delete them to clear out your schedule.
Third, you can change your calendar view settings to better control how meetings are displayed, making it easier to spot and manage unwanted invites.
It’s also important to note that moving meeting messages to a different folder using an email rule or automation might not stop them from appearing in your calendar. Calendar processing usually happens once the invitation is received, no matter where it’s stored. Removing attachments like the .ics file might prevent automatic calendar entry, but this could also block legitimate invites that you want to see.
Lastly, because spam or unwanted meeting invites can be tricky to stop completely, reaching out to AWS Support might be your best bet for a tailored solution. They can offer guidance specific to your situation, especially if you’re experiencing a significant spam problem.
