@thinkingserious Thank you Thomas!

@thinkingserious any feedback on this? This issue is opened already for several years! And with many disappointed developers :(

[KasparLee]

I am also desperately in need of this, this is almost a dealbreaker to not have inline calendar events working in Outlook properly.

@KasparLee I'm already migrating to the mailgun. Should be leaving SendGrid by the end of the month :)

[rosiehiggins]

I really need this too, any help would be much appreciated!

We're having trouble achieving this as well. It appears we need to set the Content-Transfer-Encoding to Base64 when using Content-Type:text/calendar for Outlook to work properly. We're unable to find a way to accomplish this.

[ptesar-xyndata]

We already moved to mailgun for this reason. We closed the account by sendgrid.

[rosiehiggins]

I think we will consider switching as well. Having calendar events display properly in outlook is critical for us

[JamalSBS]

Really, the only solution is the move to Mailgun?
