<p dir="auto">What kind of status?</p>

<p dir="auto">You don't do many meetings, do you? :) It's accepted, rejected, maybe</p>

</ul>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Remark?</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">When replying to a meeting you can add a remark such as: "I'll be available only for the first part of the meeting". The remark and the status should come, either as env variables or via stdin, from Mailmate I guess. Is that even possible? Remark is not a priority (I guess).</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I just realised I could really use this feature (having remark) as busycal don't support putting remarks on invites.</p>
<p dir="auto">Consider this a "I hope you can make it!"-request :)</p>

<p dir="auto">You can all have a look <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4823574/sending-meeting-invitations-with-python" style="color:#BBB">here</a> for a minimal Python implementation.</p>
<p dir="auto">Replying is much easier though: you just need to change the content of one line of the invite (assuming no notes are added).</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I'm going to try to ignore having to understand the details of the calendar format and what can be done with invites. I'll just note that hopefully MailMate can make this a bit simpler by taking care of constructing the MIME message.</p>
<p dir="auto">Maybe I should just let you know when the attachments features described above are available? :)</p>
<p dir="auto">Do you think they would be sufficient? Or do you need more detailed control of the construction of the MIME message?</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I don't know :)</p>
<p dir="auto">Looking at the raw message of an invite, it looks like this. From Python I could just supply the base64 encoded content. If Mailmate would handle the rest: that'd be swell! :)</p>
<p dir="auto">Cheers,</p>
<p dir="auto">Giovanni</p>
