Importing vCalendar announcements from Outlook

Tue, 22 Mar 2005

I just received my third announcement/meeting request from an Outlook use (the first two I just deleted because I didn't know what to do with them).

I bounce the mail where I could fetch it with my Powerbook (running mutt). I saved the attachment, and after a little trial and error, determined that naming it .ics, iCal would open it happily and import it. Strangely, iCal would not open the same file with any other extension.
