Multiple CalDAV calendars synced to email aliases for a single email account? (fedia.io)

Has anyone managed to get multiple CalDAV calendars (e.g. personal and work) to send out event invite emails using corresponding email aliases from the same email account?

I have multiple domains and aliases set up with a single email account through an email provider, but I'm just now trying to figure out how to separate the calendar into personal and work.

EDIT: I managed to get it set up and working with nextcloud! So yes, this is possible

I don't see the problem. Which caldav server are you using? Which caldav app? Android? PC?

It's a bit vague.

    I don't have a problem, I'm just trying to make sure the functionality is possible and normal before spending time working on it. I couldn't find anything searching around so I thought the people here might've done it before

    I think the confusion is that this isn't a CalDAV concern. A CalDAV server only hosts event/task definitions. It doesn't do anything with them, only offers an API for managing them.

    It's the client apps that use those definitions to work out occurances, do notifications, send emails etc.

    So what you want is a capable calendar app with CalDAV support and email support, that can send email invites using different email addresses for different calendars.

    At man ment I do it with + adresses instead of alias. It works also.

    Meanwhile I do not lile it anymore, that the caldav calendars are fully separated. Its not possible to have the flexibility I need for family management.
