Appointments vs. e-mails

G

Guest

When I send an appointment from my calendar to someone else, the appointment
comes in an e-mail form instead of an appointment form. When someone else
sends one to me, the same thing happens. Is there a setting that I need to
change in order for my Outlook to view these appointments as appointments and
not e-mails?

Are you sending over the Internet or internally? If Internet, right click
on the addressee and select properties (Outlook 2003 Outlook Properties) and
then change the format to always send using Rich Text Format.

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal

Ensure you do not have the addressee's contact marked as sending plain text
only.

| We are sending them internally through a local server.
