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
