The following code has been used:
string subject = "Calendar test 3";
MailMessage emailMessage = new MailMessage();
emailMessage.To = <address>
emailMessage.Subject = "my subject";
emailMessage.Headers.Add("Content-Type","text/calendar;method=\"REQUEST\"");
emailMessage.Body=@dotnet.itags.org."BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//ACME/DesktopCalendar//EN
METHOD:REQUEST
VERSION:2.0...<the rest of iCalendar>
";
MailService.Send(emailMessage);
Even though the content-type was specified in Headers collection the
resulting message still contains "text/plain" content-type.
Please help.
VladYou probably need to set the BodyFormat property on your MailMessage
object to get the content-type to what you want.
Example:
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
mail.To = <address>
mail.From = <address>
mail.Subject = emailSubject;
mail.BodyFormat = System.Web.Mail.MailFormat.Html;
Hope that helps

I dont think it has anything to do with HTML/Plain text. Content-type is
email header--not HTTP header. I tried it anyways just to be safe and got
the same results - plain text.
Still need MSFT help with this!

I believe that if the email reader does not support the "text/calendar"
type, it is probably converting it to "text/plain". Why email reader are
you using? If you have a web access email account, you might try sending an
email to that account and view it in something like FireFox which supports
"text/calendar".

Actually we use MS Outlook 2003 which does support it. We tried it with a
custom third-party component that sets the header fine. However when we did
it through .NET native component it didn't work.
