ical being converted to meeting request

[RobR]

At home I use Outlook 2003 and when I send an Ical to work I receive a
meeting request, usually with the wrong time and no chance to accept or
decline. At work I have Outlook 2003 as well, but it comes through an
Exchange Server. In previous versions of Outlook this was never a problem.
Icals were sent, received, opened and saved. From work I can send an Ical
and it's received no problem. I've also sent Icals to other computers from
home and they receive them no problem.

Scott, we found a work-around. From home we just Forward the event. When I
get it at work I can then open it and save it, but it doesn't save in the
calendar. If I drag and drop it from the email to my calendar, it then
saves the event with the proper time and other information.

I'm no expert but I've tried the solutions presented by Microsoft such as
making sure settings boxes are checked or unchecked. With both versions of
Outlook now being the same, it must be Exchange. Or Small Business Server
2003 which we have at work.
