Is there a way to manage reservations of Outlook resources like [email protected] entirely through email? I know that it is easily managed through Outlook by creating new Appointments and Meetings and then inviting the resource's email address.
These features look a lot like sending an email though. Is there a way to skip Outlook entirely and reserve resources using only regular email? Maybe some kind of formatted HTML or XML in the message body?
This would allow us to book resources from anywhere, like from Linux boxes without Outlook, workflows in SharePoint, or even in browser in ymail or gmail.
Sure, if you configure the mailbox to accept the meeting requests automatically. A meeting request is nothing but an iCal invitation.
