yes, the annoying thing is that they come as:
     content-type: text/calendar

while other systems (zimbra, google):
      content-type: multipart/alternatives
        content-type: text/plain
        content-type: text/calendar

so with the microsoft output you have to parse, you can't just read...
And the details of the meeting you have been invited to are in pseudo-html
inside....
