Squirrelsewer has one answer to the problem (basically Outlook 2007 doesn’t appear to like iCal headers very much) but I think it’s over engineered. Bedework’s core mailer takes a simpler approach so back to battle with that one.

Update: Actually there’s another step. You need to force the Mime mail header (text/calendar;method=request;charset=UTF-8) and also ensure that the Mime email message is set to alternative as well so that Outlook doesn’t get confused.
