Calendar invitations - .ics files - Notes and Outlook

Dear All,

I have installed Lotus Notes 8 and customized it via POP/SMTP accounts.

Now, I send calendar invitations to Microsoft Outlook users.

Outlook users receive an email with the .ICS calendar file attached. In this file, there is the following line:

ORGANIZER;CN=“Mikaël/Mikaël”:mailto:

We can see that there is no email address after “mailto:”.

It causes the following error message while importing the ics into Oulook:

“cannot import vCalendar file. Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are not valid.”

If I manually change the line into the following, then all works fine and the Outlook users can accept or decline my invitation.

ORGANIZER;CN=“Mikaël/Mikaël”:mailto:mikaël.donini@gmail.com

Do you know where we can customize this email address in Notes?

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Mikaël Donini, Arkadin, France.
