At work they use Outlook to calendar. I prefer not to use it (esp. since
I want to read e-mail in Eudora, and not have e-mail downloaded in both
Eudora and Outlook just so I can calendar).
Downloaded the free Palm desktop. It can create vcal appointments for
me to send to others in the office. But when I tried creating an
appointment in Outlook and sending it to myself, Eudora gets it as text
file with winmail.dat attachment.
Ideas? Or just bear with Outlook for calendaring a bit longer with old
address, and use Eudora for e-mail with new address?
One thing I need to check -- I could change the format Outlook sends the
calendar items in, but as I recall then the attachments don't get
received properly (or not sent properly!) by Outlook, so that the
recipients see the encoded text rather than receiving a vcal attachment
that has been properly decoded.
Thanks,
-Andrew

In order for Outlook to send the item, it needs to use Outlook Rich Text
Format, which causes the winmail.dat.

But can I do anything to get Eudora to get an ".ics" attachment? It's
not that I mind getting a winmail.dat attachment. I mind *not* getting
the ".ics" (or whatever the ical suffix is) attachment.
Thanks,
Andrew

Ask Eudora Help.

Good point. Turns out I just right click and do "open attachment
with."
But it turns out that not many calendar programs support ".ics"
Anyone have any favorites after Outlook that support .ics?
Thanks,
Andrew
