Hi all,

I have an application that send emails for my customers, but I would

Somebody know how can I format the email?

Thanks in advance

Search on any search engine for your preferred programming language and "iCalendar." Or, use Outlook to send a meeting request to any account you can read and see the full raw message content so you can get a full iCalendar message item to dissect.

Hi,

I did the vcs file.
What I have to do now?
I tried to send as an attachment, but I received as an attachment,
and not like a calendar appointment.
I would like to receive like a calendar appointment. It is
possible?


Thanks.

Sounds like you didn't understand my response at all: "Use Outlook to send a meeting request to any account you can read and see the full raw message content so you can get a full iCalendar message item to dissect." Look at the raw message to see what a meeting request looks like. To create such message you need to use the features in your programming language to create a similar multipart MIME message. Consult your programming environment documentation or do as I suggested and search.

How can I read the full raw message content in outlook?

You can't. You need to use Outlook Express or Gmail or some other mailer.

Hi,

I sent to my Gmail account.
I received an attached file: winmail.dat
This file has encripted information that I cannot read.

Tools | Options | Calendar Options | When sending meeting requests over the Internet ...

If that option is grayed out, either add a POP3 account to your mail profile or create a new profile for testing with just a POP3 account in it.
