# Viewing Received Invitations

A user will receive invitations from other IMail Web Calendaring users when their names are entered as an invitee for an event. This occurs when their e-mail address is specified in the Invitee area of the Add an Event page. A user can view their invitations by accessing the Invitations page in IMail Web Calendaring. This page stores all of the invitations, that are received from other IMail Web Calendaring users, and also allows the recipient to reject or confirm the invitation. In addition, the user will also receive an e-mail notifying them of the invitation. If an e-mail is sent to a user who does not use IMail Web Calendaring, they will still receive an e-mail, but will not have the ability to confirm or reject the invitation.
