Sending meeting invite to someone outside host server (Outlook 200

[sharma]

Is it possible for Outlook to send invites to a user outside the host server?
I mean, I have been asked to schedule a meeting for someone in my company,
with the other attendee being at a different company.

I saw a post on sharing a calendar (read-only) on the web, but I didn't
think that was the same thing.

I'm thinking that it is not possible, since you typically wouldn't be able
to view the other person's availability. So is my only option to set up the
meeting on my manager's calendar and just email the other attendee with the
relevant information?

Thanks for any tips or insights!

Sure, particularly if they also use Outlook. As you say, you won't be able to
see their free/busy, but that doesn't prevent you from sending the meeting
request.
