Outlook – Forward a meeting request as a plain email message in Outlook 2010

emailforwardingmeeting-requestmicrosoft-outlookmicrosoft-outlook-2010

Microsoft has documentation about turning an e-mail message into a meeting request, at least for Outlook 2003:

Turn a message into a meeting request – Outlook – Office.com
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/turn-a-message-into-a-meeting-request-HP003064164.aspx

But now I would like to do something that is, in a sense, the opposite: I want to forward a meeting request to another person, but as a simple/plain email message (NOT as a meeting request), in Microsoft Outlook 2010. How can I do that?

This was bugging me too and I didnt want to set the contact properties. So I dug some more and found an even easier method (its still not as easy as it should be).

  1. Start a new e-mail message
  2. Select Insert -> Outlook item
  3. Select "Insert as text" over on the right-hand side of the window
  4. Select either the Inbox calender invite or select calender and then the item itself.

Voila.
