Hi,

I used Aspose.Network to generate automatic appointments (meeting requests) to our account managers.
All this works fine, except, when the appointment is accepted, the account managers can't forward the appointment to a colleague, because there is no forward button in Outlook (2003/2007) and in the shedule tab, the fields to invite others are disabled.

Do i have to change some settings of the Appointment object, or anything else ?

Hi,

Thanks for considering Aspose.

Could you please also post the sample eml file, saved from MailMessage class, using the code below: There is no special setting in Appointment class to enable/disable the forward button.

Appointment app = new Appointment("location", DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now, new MailAddress("sender@domain.com"),
                new MailAddress("recipient@domain.com"));
            app.Summary = "summary";
            app.Description = "description";

            MailMessage msg = new MailMessage("sender@domain.com", "recipient@domain.com", "subject", "body");
            msg.AddAlternateView(app.RequestApointment());
            msg.Save("test.eml");

I was successfully able to forward the appointment using Outlook 2007. The button was enabled and was working. However, as a recipient, you cannot add others, because the "Invite Others" button in the schedule tab is disabled. But, if you open the appointment in Outlook as an organizer of the meeting, you can invite others.

Just for the testing, I sent an appointment request from gmail to my pop3 inbox and opened it in Outlook 2007. "Invite others" button was disabled in this case too.
