Another datapoint 

Outlook express daw an ics file without knowing what to do with it.  The
ID from email:

X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5

Is there anything I can do?  I am wondering if OE fails for a an OE
request

[Evolution] iCal + OutLook 2000

2001-11-27 Thread Austin Gonyou

I know this is a dead horse, or at least it seems to be, but my boss
cannot see any of the calendar.ics files sent to him properly. Outlook
wants to open .ics files as textfiles in wordpad rather than doing
something with them. 

My question is what is a list of the common problems associated with
Outlook + receiving iCal attatchments. 

The ones I get in Evo, FROM outlook seem to work fine.

As a side note, my install under Win4Lin seems to work fine when I send
iCal attatchments, so I'm not sure what the problem is with my boss's
LookOut!
