I am relatively new to CF and desperately looking for help to send a meeting notice to users using CF (version 9) and Outlook 2013.

Do you have a working example code that you can share?

I read so many different examples but feel lost at basic initial step of making the connection using cfexchangeconnection

I work in a large company so all the servers mgmt are handled by IT group. Same with CF servers.

If you can send an email via ColdFusion you should be able to use an .ics/iCal file as an attachment to do this.

Note: Trying to use cfexchangeconnection may not accomplish what you're looking for it's typically used to access a users email account.
