iOS 8.2 and Exchange Fixes
Previously users of iOS 8.x experienced several issues with the meetings sent in Rich Text / HTML format have the body converted to plain text especially with Lync Meeting URL’s appear broken. Message body truncated to 500 characters, CRA – Calendar repair Assistant updated their meetings.
The new release of iOS 8.2 fixes the following issues:
- Fixes a time zone issue where Calendar events appear in GMT
- Addresses an issue that caused certain events in a custom recurring meeting to drop from an Exchange calendar
- Fixes a certificate error that prevented configuring an Exchange account behind a third-party gateway
- Fixes an issue that could cause an organizer’s Exchange meeting notes to be overwritten
- Resolves an issue that prevented some Calendar events from automatically showing as ‘Busy’ after accepting an invite

Has that been fixed? There is no mention of it in the Apple patch notes from the link you provided.
Thanks!!

On my Iphone 6 IOS 8.2 I don’t find this issue, but I would still suggest to check this in the Apple forum.

We’re seeing similar behavior and I have the same question, was this addressed in 8.2?
