Email a Meeting Request

I know how to send SMTP emails from within apex.
but is it possible to email a meeting request.. how would that be done?
A. User picks a date,time on an apex calendar.
B. Meeting request is emailed for that date, time so the users can accept and have it added to their local calendars.

  • How to send meeting request by mail adapter

    Hi,
    I'm doing scenario from file to mail. I have a sender file adapter to pick up the meeting request standard format file(*.ics) from file system. On the other side I have a receiver mail adapter to send mail. What I want to do is the sent mail by mail adapter should be a meeting request instead of a normal email with meeting request as its attachment.
    I use localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean as first module in mail adapter, but the sent mail is also a normal with meeting request as its attachment. This is not what I expected.
    I also created own module for mail adapter to realize it. Do I need to change the format of meeting reqeust information in payload? Actually I have chance to do it in module. But what should I do? Thanks.

  • Cannot view the detailed Email date and time about the meeting request

    Hi,I am unable to view the detailed message and Date and time of a meeting request in the default Email app in my Sony Xperia P mobile. Even when i select the calender it does not defaultly go to the meeting date. I need to manually select the date to see the meeting. I cannot see the meeting details without accepting it.I have seen the better behaviors on HTC One V and Galaxy Nexus where full meeting details including message, Date, time, venue appears in the meeting request message.Is there any setting which needs to be changes or is it the limitation of the phone app.Regards,Pratik Ranjan

    Hi Johan,Im also seeing this on my xperia s, ICS.  Here's some additional info i have after some testing:Work have Exchange 2010, I have sent calendar invites from outlook 2007 and 2010 clients and it works for the 2007 clients as it automatically adds the meeting details into the body of the request, something it doesn’t do in 2010, so it may be the way the calendar form has changed in 2010.   It also works fine when i get an invite from an external person.This however is just adding the text into the body, I too have tested with the HTC One S and Samsung Galxay S3, bith use the stock email and both display the time as part ofthe invite no tin the body of the invite,
    In doing the testing I have also found another issue. I have found that it doesn’t inform you of a calendar conflict.ThanksMike

  • Office365 User not receiving Meeting Request Email (but shows in Calendar)

    Hi,
    We have one user (so far) who has successfully migrated from Exchange 2007 to 'Office365' but when you sent them an meeting request they do not get ANY email notification of it. No Spam, rules, junk email are affecting it. There are no delegates on the account.
    I have removed the Office365 user license for them and then re-added it but made no difference.
    If the user goes into the calendar they can actually 'see' the meeting and accept / decline it in there but we obviously need the user to get some email notification of it so they are aware of a meeting and now get a 'surprise' meeting they knew nothing about!
    Other migrated users are able to receive email notifications of meeting requests without issue. There is just no trace of it for this user.

    Hi Peter,
    As per your description above, I understand that one user cannot receive meeting requests, instead, the meetings are placed on their calendar directly.
    I would like to confirm that whether he/she configured the email account into any Outlook clients, or actually we are talking about the web-based Outlook in Office 365 portal?
    If this is an issue in the Outlook desktop client, please check if you have ticked the option of
    Automatically accept meeting requests and remove canceled meetings
    under FILE>Options>Calendar>Auto Accept/Decline... Try untick it and verify again.
    If Outlook client is not involved here, I would suggest you post your question in the forum of Office 365 Community - email and calendar, where you can get more experienced responses:
    http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158.aspx
    The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
    Hope this helps.

  • N8 PR1.1 meeting requests by email fixed ?

    I updated my N8:00 (product code 059D4S1)  today from   011.012   to    013.016
    I see the new Quick office 6.4    but I tried a meeting request by email (office 2010)  got the email but its blank  ?   no way to accept or reject meeting ?
    Is this this fixed for anyone else?
    Also did anyone else get a an update after install 013.016    apps update? 
    Thanks
                  Paul

    I can confirm The meeting requests to email are working    (I tested it on a MS hotmail account not exchange at first )  So if you want to be able to  accept or denny emailed meeting requests you need  Microsoft EXCHANGE   set up.     Note: you can get free  exchange via  hotmail now.
    Not sure if the exchange contacts sync (via hotmail exchange) is fixed a know i and others had problems where it was syncing all contacts  (this maybe a hotmail issue)
    Looking forward to next update where i hope they improve the N8 Browser
    * it should default to website fitting whole screen like iphone and Android)   
    * doesn't work on some html java links this needs fixing.
    * some sites you can't hit "return"  to complete info there is no return button!!
    keep it up Nokia !!!

  • Calendar Meeting Request Accepted Email bug

    I have come across a possible bug with the BlackBerry Calendar feature. When I invited an attendee who has a BlackBerry Curve 8520 to a meeting with a reminder time of '0 min' with my BlackBerry Bold 9780 whilst holding both phones in my hand and accepting the meeting request on the Curve, the email that was sent back to my Bold indicated a reminder time of 'None'.
    When I checked the reminder time on the Curve after this, it was set to '0 min.
    Is this how meeting request approvals are supposed to be sent, indicating a reminder time of 'None' when the reminder time is set as '0 min'?

    Calendar management in Nokia E7 is a pathetic.. You can't select the receipent when creating an invite and you can't see the meeting attendee list of an existing calendar entry in your phone..
    Overall, I liked the phone, but this particular function has spoiled my impression about it.

  • Iphone 4 S meeting request reply email in different languange

    I bought an iPhone 4S factory unlocked from Italy. I changed the system language to english and all went well except whenever I receive a meeting request, the confirmation email sent from the iPhone is sent in the italian languange. I tried to search were to change this but did not find it. any help?

    my version now is 4.3.5 and still same problem arised. at first i was not aware that most of the owners of iphone4 is also complaining about the 'bug'.
    my phone can't delete sms, battery draining even minimal usage was done and it was really hot to touch. I just turned off the contacts in my email account to avoid the bug.. im trying to observe now if it will happen again. Hopefully it will not anymore.
    I was waiting for version 5 to come out if there is a fix for this one as most of us need to use contacts in our email accounts.

  • I get a question mark next to email addresses when I try to send a meeting request and it fails

    Outlook 2010, standard Win 7 setup.
    I am trying to send a meeting request and when I bring up the address book to insert email addresses it seems to insert the address but it has a gray question mark next to it.  Sending then fails. Even an email address manually typed in gets the question
    mark.
    Odd thing is that from a regular email I can insert the same address from the same contact list and it works fine.
    Why does it fail in meeting invites by not in email?

    Hi,
    When you hover your mouse pointer on the mark, or click on it, do you see any hint?
    When sending the meeting request fails, do you see any error message?
    If you are an Exchange account user, try to send a request to the people in your organization, I suppose it works.
    Just a guess, try to clear the nickname and the automatic completion caches to test the result:

  • When I accept a meeting request via email I am unable to designate which calendar I want the meeting to go to. I can do it on my iPhone, but not my MacBook.

    When I accept a meeting request via email I am unable to designate which calendar I want the meeting to go to. I can do it on my iPhone, but not my MacBook. The calendars are shared with my wife, she is the owner of the calendar but I have Read & Edit permissions.

    Are you properly selecting the content to sync in iTunes? I mean you have all of the headings - Sync Music, Sync Movies, etc. checked to sync and all of the content as well?
    Is the iPad signed into the same iTunes account as your PC? You are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account on both devices. On the iPad go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - is that the same ID that your iTunes library is using?
    Lastly, did you ever transfer the purchases from your iPad to the PC? Is all of the content that you have on the iPad in your iTunes library?
    I can't think of any other reasons why the iTunes on the PC as seeing this as a new iPad.

  • "Reply-to" address, "Meeting Requests", Emails on ...

    The main 3 features i would love to see on Nokia Messaging for Email are:
    - Reply-to address
    - Receiving Meeting Requests
    - Storing emails on memory cards intead of phone's memory
    If you too would like any of these features, please write to the following email requesting them:
    [email protected]
    Thank you for clicking on the Green button with the white Star for Kudos!!

    Oh, I just found two possible ways in another thread but they have serious drawbacks:
    1. Change the "send new email from" address in the prefs. Unfortunately Mail won't let me create an account with my desired email address because the address I want to use has the same host and user name as my "From" address.
    2. Go into Terminal and make a permanent "Reply To" address. This method is so arcane and scary that I really don't like the idea, plus it's unchangeable.
    Apple should offer an option to include an automatic "reply to" feature. If they don't, they dropped the ball on that one.

  • How do I fix meeting requests/invitations default to ms outlook calendar and do not show up on iCloud calendar?

    This is frustrating and seems to be a known issue. Regular calendar items work fine but any meeting invitations sent to and accepted on PC running Outlook 2010 with iCloud add in only show up on default (local) calendar. Must add them manually. Also meeting requests sent from same PC configuration are being hijacked by iCal/iCloud feature and prompt the receiver to accept through iCloud interface rather than a regular Outlook email invite, though those meeting do show up on end user's Outlook calendar. And meeting requests sent to a group gives an STMP error. Is there an update or newer version that fixes any of these issues?  I turned off MobileMe add in but doesn't help. We use iCloud and like it because we need the calendar and contact features to sync between the PC and iPhone and iPad, which works fine.

    Outlook will not allow a subscribed calendar to be the default, unless it is an Exchange calendar. You can't change this behaviour unfortunately.

  • How do I see meeting requests but not responses to meetings arranged by my delegates?

    Hello
    I am surprised that I can't see this precise question as it is  stopping the whole executive of my company from using outlook delegation in Exchange 2010 and in fact they use email between PAs rather than calendar requests to manage all meetings. This
    is because the exec don't want to see any responses to meetings arranged by delegates.
    1. I want to see meeting invites that are sent to me so I can decide whether to attend or not. 
    2, My delegates set up many meetings on my behalf and I don't want to see any responses to those meetings - my delegate deals with those, not me. 
    Can this be achieved? 
    I know I can avoid seeing any meeting requests and responses, but that is not what I want! I want not to see responses to meetings arranged by my delegates on my behalf. 
    This is a real obstacle to adopting calendars in my organisation
    thanks!

    Thank you for the suggestion. We do have several other email systems in use but on the whole, as CIO (and, by the way, female) I've moved tens of thousands of users to 365 and try to move people there in general. However, it seems silly or inept of MS not
    to provide this simple functionality. I have seen this be an issue in more than one organisation.
    The only solution seems to be for the PAs to work harder or for the Execs to do as I do (i.e. move lots of pointless meeting invites into a junk folder - because of the poor interface with iOS it is risky to delete an MS meeting response as it may vanish
    from your phone). You would think it worth MS considering how people actually want to delegate.

  • Outlook multi-day (not 'all day') meeting requests showing up as 1 day off on iphone attached Activesync Exchange 2010 accounts

    Exchange 2010 SP2 Server
    iPhone iOS 5.01 (4/4s) using ActiveSync
    Outlook 2007 clients
    When multi-day (not 'all day') meeting requests or appointments are being sent to email accounts which have an iPhone attached to the Exchange account via ActiveSync, the iPhone accepts the meeting request but then moves the event one day later than what it was originally scheduled and posts it to Outlook - also 1 day later than it is supposed to be.
    For example:  A meeting request comes into my that is schedule for 9AM-4PM M-W but when I accept it on my iphone it gets posted to my calendar as an ALL DAY event but T-Thu
    We upgraded to Exchange SP2 because some of the threads were alluding that SP2 would fix it - it didn't.  I know the fix is to rip out the event to separate calendar events but this will not work for reqeusts coming from outside.  And this is too tedious.  If anything, it is a serious bug.
    Anybody seen this before?
    Thanks,
    Monty.

    I am experiencing a similar problem with a client of mine who is using Microsoft's Cloud-based Exchange server, Office 365.  I suspect the Office 365 server is an Exchange 2010 server, similar to your environment.  Check out my tests below which I think define when the day shifting happens. 
    I see that you applied SP2 to your Exchange 2010 environment, but have you also applied Update Rollup 1?  See this article:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563324.  It would be interesting to know whether that rollup resolves your problem.
    I have done some pretty extensive testing and have posted in the Office 365 Support Forum (http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/146/p/53396/192332.aspx#192332)  Here is a summary of my testing.
    I am having the exact same problem described by Jim Edmonds and jkwmail (http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/176/p/19921/93304.aspx#93304) with one of my clients who is not very happy about this or our inability to resolve the problem.  Here is what I am experiencing:
    When an appointment in Office 365 spans multiple days, the appointment gets converted to an All Day Event and moved forward one day on an iPhone ActiveSync client.
    I have completed the following troubleshooting:
    1 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate single day appointments in the morning from each account spanning two hours and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365. 
        Result:  The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook, Office 365 webmail, and iPhone.
    2 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate single day appointments in the afternoon from each account spanning two hours and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365. 
        Result:  The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook, Office 365 webmail, and iPhone.
    3 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate multi-day appointments from Friday at 5 PM to Monday at 8 AM from each account and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365. 
        Result:  The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook and Office 365 webmail.  However, on my client's iPhone, the time on the appointments had changed to an all day event and the start date was shifted one day forward, Saturday, and the end date was Monday unless the appointment end time was after the appointment start time in which case it created an All Day Event on Tuesday as well.  For Example:  If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 8 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.  If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 8:30 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.  If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 7:30 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.  This was also true for appointments starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 5 PM, starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 5:30 PM, and starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 4:30 PM as in the above AM examples. 
    *** Again I would like to note that on my iPhone which is connected to my company's MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 server, the multi-day appointment shows up correctly with correct start and end times and is not converted to an All Day Event. *** 
    It would seem this is a problem with ActiveSync on Office 365 and iOS devices.  What is particularly frustrating is that this exact problem is identified in KB 2563324 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563324) Issue 1.6 - "An appointment is longer than 24 hours is changed to a multi-day All Day Event" which states:  "To resolve this issue, install Update Rollup 1 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2 (SP2)."  Since this is a cloud based service, we do not have the ability to either see what the current version of the Exchange service we are connected to is or update the service with this patch level.
    4 - I performed the above three tests with my client creating the events in MS Outlook 2010 and inviting my work account on the MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server and got the exact same results.
    5 - My client's iPhone is running iOS 4.3 and my iPhone is running iOS 5.1.0.  In order to test this without going through the update process on my client's iPhone, I set up his Office 365 account on my iPhone and performed the tests in numbers 1-4 from above, viewing the results on my iPhone, and got the exact same results.
    6 - Today, I tried this with a different Office 365 account, performed the multi-day test in number 3 from above and got the exact same results.
    7 - Today I also upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.1.1, performed the multi-day test in number 3 from above and got the exact same results.
    8 - I have confirmed that all time zones are set correctly.  I have checked the iPhone, OWA, Office 365 Webmail, etc.
    I believe the problem in my case is with the Office 365 environment and not the iOS device.  However, trying to get support from these large companies seems to be very difficult?
    Does anyone from Apple know if this is an iOS bug or a problem with Exchange 2010/Office 365?
    Thanks...
