How can I add a comment when I decline an invite in iCal or Apple Mail?

I'm using iCal to manage my calendar on an Exchange server. In outlook, when I accepted or declined a meeting, I was able to add a comment telling the sender why I couldn't make the meeting. With iCal, it just rudely declines the meeting with no ability to add a comment.

Am I missing something?

In iCal, you can. Just double-click the invitation in your inbox, and the event inspector will pop up:

How do you get the comment field to show up? – slhck – 2011-11-01T20:58:26.553

When you’ve been invited to an event, the comment field should be there, right above the “Maybe”, “Decline”, and “Accept” buttons. What do you see? – s4y – 2011-11-03T15:31:08.327

I was paraphrasing the deleted message of a user who asked this – maybe it's clearer now. I personally can't say what their problems were. Thanks though :) – slhck – 2011-11-03T15:38:09.857

3Anyone knows if that is possible from Mail as well? Declining and add comment? – Marcus Hammarberg – 2012-04-16T13:48:01.810
