If the contractor has Outlook and you have him listed in your Contacts folder or PAB, double-click on his e-mail address and check the "always send to this recipient in Outlook rich-text format." You should then be able to assign him the task as if he were a local user. You can also use this technique to schedule meetings.
Worst case, create a blank e-mail to the contractor, Insert | Item and attach the task. But if he doesn't use Outlook he probably won't be able to read the attachment. -----Original Message----- From: Orin Rehorst [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 20, 2002 9:50 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Emailing tasks externally Tried to forward a task to a contractor (via external email).
