Great tool indeed!
I got MS-Outlook calendar invitations that did not include the usual "join now" button/link. Recipients using Outlook could participate using the button that the Teams plugin of Outlook places in the menu, but me with Tunderbird couldn't use the invitation at all.
This Add-on saves the day!
You can simple extract the .ics file, save somewere and open it with a text editor to copy the Teams-link to a browser.

If I could suggest a thing: Thunderbird adds a coloured info-line or button-bar on top of the email (in a separate tap as well as in the preview) saying "this email contains an invitation..." with buttons "Accept", "Decline" etc. If this add-on could make the "Get Appointment" button in this info-menu it would perhaps be more easy to find. In my Tunderbird I only see the button if the mail is open in a separate tap next to the "Junk", "Delete" etc. buttons and one could miss it there...
Even better if there would perhaps be a second button like "open Teams-Link in browser", but may be to complicated. Whatever, it is fine!

TLDR - excellent add-on and thanks very much to the author!!!
