This is a timely topic for me as well.  My collegues
and I use outlook, but we've found ourselves
maintaining a seperate ColdFusion based calendar. 
What would be very nice would be a way to sync
everyone's calendars together.  Or at very least have
changes made on the ColdFusion calendar be somehow
distributed out to the relevant party's Outlook
calendars.  It should be noted that for this project,
many of us aren't in the same office or even the same
company.  

Also, if you use the COM objects, does outlook need to
be installed on the server too?

vCal is the standard format and cflib.org has a
function for dealing with
it, but in Outlook all the appointment stuff will be
obscured inside MS'
proprietary TNEF standard - I'd be surprised if this
were easily
reproducible.

Check out the vCal standard.  Also, if you create a
meeting request in
Outlook and send it to a non-Microsoft mail client,
you might be able to
view the headers and find the information that
requests accepts/declines,
etc.

Does anyone know if this can be done:

In outlook you can create appointments and send them
to others for approval,
like accept, decline etc. Is there anyway for a cfmail
to send this type of
appointment email? I don't think it can be that
difficult, maybe just
sending different types of headers?

If anyone has see this done or has any advice please
let me know.
