Oops, then IceOwl should not be needed.

Mmm... as you have "iceowl-extension" this one has to process the ICS 
attached files, that's what happens in my case (note that I have no 
Sundbird nor IceOwl installed but the calendar extension) which makes me 
wonder if the ICS file you received was properly formatted. 

Run a quick test by sending to yourself an invitation to a self-created 
event and check how it goes.

For the Mozilla project I guess the former successor is Lightning (i.e., 
"iceowl-extension") but you can look for another standalone calendar app.
