ics extension stripped
I use outlook 2003 for calendaring but Eudora 7 for email on multiple
computers. If I receive an Outlook meeting invitation in Eudora on an XP computer, the attachment ends in .ics and works when I click on it. If I receive the exact same invitation (by leaving it on the server and downloading again) on a Vista computer, the.ics is stripped. If I manually add .ics to the downloaded file, it works. Any idea why or what I can do? Thanks, Mitch |

ics extension stripped
Are you opening it from the message or saving it to the hard drive? Do you
have vista set to show all extensions? -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

ics extension stripped
In Eudora, messages are automatically saved to the hard drive. When I open it
from the e-mail or from the hard drive, there is no extension. I also leave my e-mails on the server. If I download the identical e-mail in Eudora on an XP computer, the extension is there. And yes, Vista shows all extensions. If I manually rename the file to add the extension, then it works perfectly.

ics extension stripped
it sounds like Eudora isn't saving it with the extension - I had a problem
with this in vista with another program and enabling the all extensions options in Vista's file and folder options fixed it. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

ics extension stripped
Well the setting that says to hide extensions for known file types is not
checked. Is there another setting? All other extensions are visible. If it is Eudora doing this, it is only happening in Vista. I use Eudora on XP and these extensions are not stripped. thanks, Mitch "Diane Poremsky [MVP]" wrote: it sounds like Eudora isn't saving it with the extension - I had a problem with this in vista with another program and enabling the all extensions options in Vista's file and folder options fixed it. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.
