I'm having a weird situation with Exchange Online and need some help figuring it out. Our CIO mentioned that Person X received a notification about a personal meeting they had scheduled with someone else. The strange part is that Person X wasn't an invitee and isn't listed as a delegate on the CIO's mailbox either. I've checked the audit log, but there haven't been any changes to delegate access for the last six months, which is the limit of what I can search in O365. To make things more complicated, Person X has deleted the notification already. Has anyone encountered something like this before?

It's also possible that Person X might have been accidentally invited at some point via the @ mention feature. However, since this meeting was personal and not involving Person X, it seems unlikely that they were supposed to get that notification. Just something else to consider!
Are you sure this is related to Office 365? Microsoft mentioned an issue in their service health today that might be connected. Unfortunately, I’m not at my work computer, so I can’t check the specifics right now, but it's worth looking into.
You might want to investigate some notification forensics. There could be an issue with how Windows is handling notifications, or possibly a glitch in O365 that allowed that notification to be pushed out wrongly. Check this article I found for more insights: https://inc0x0.com/2018/10/windows-10-notification-database/.
If you're looking for a history of issues regarding Office 365, you can find it under admin.microsoft.com. Just click 'show all' on the left menu, then go to 'health'. It's a good idea to check this whenever something unexpected happens; it could give you a clue about similar problems affecting other users.
