I am trying to use the WebSphere e-mail adapter to send an SMTP message to a Lotus Notes user. I’d like this message to appear as a calendar invite in the Lotus Notes Inbox. Does anyone know what the structure of the e-mail message needs to be in order to get Lotus Notes to recognize the e-mail as a calendar invitation?
Thanks.
Subject: iCAL attachment
Since you’re sending into your Domino system via SMTP, you’ll need to construct an iCAL attachment with the invitation data which Domino will then convert. It’s a fairly straightforward standard and there is an open source java lib for it called iCal4j.
