Thanks for the information. I seem to remember using your script in the
past. However, I never managed to automate pulling an ICS file from the
local Exchange server via the EWS API. I seem to remember there was a
problem with some IIS setting that the Windows admins were unwilling to
change. So I gave up on that and now just import meeting invites
directly from Gnus into Org using the gnus-icalendar package.
Cheers,
Loris
