Thanks for the information. I seem to remember using your script in the past. However, I never managed to automate pulling an ICS file from the local Exchange server via the EWS API. I seem to remember there was a problem with some IIS setting that the Windows admins were unwilling to change. So I gave up on that and now just import meeting invites directly from Gnus into Org using the gnus-icalendar package. Cheers, Loris -- This signature is currently under construction.
