Just wanted to add that I tried the same thing but against a Mailcow server (using SOGo's DAV endpoint and all seems to work correctly with CalDav Synchronizer (inviting attendants, confirmations, etc).
It looks like the issue is on SmarterMail side. I just wanted to dismiss any issue with the synchronizer itself before blaming SM for it.
