Invite attendees is garbled when sending from 2003 to 2000.

[scottvin]

I have a user (Oulook 2003) that is trying to Invite attendees and when
she sends to Outlook 2000 users it is not working properly. She is set
for HTML.

2003 to 2003 work fine.
2000 to 2003 work fine.
2003 to 2000 does not work.

Thanks!

There is a known incompatiblity between Outlook 2000 and later versions related to reminders on meeting requests sent in iCalendar (aka iCal) format. To resolve this issue, do one of the following:

-- Contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the Outlook 2000 post-SP3 hotfix described in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823199

-- Tell the senders to remove any reminder before sending you an iCal meeting request.

-- Tell the senders to send to you in native Outlook meeting request (RTF) format, not as iCal.
