我想向Outlook以及gmail / yahoo等非Outlook客户端发送包含日历邀请/约会的电子邮件。我的应用程序托管在Azure上,我使用SendGrid发送电子邮件。电子邮件部分工作正常但我还没有找到任何适用于Outlook和其他电子邮件客户端的完全可用的解决方案。这是我用来发送电子邮件的代码段:

var client = new SendGridClient(this.apiKey);
var msg = MailHelper.CreateSingleEmailToMultipleRecipients(
            new EmailAddress(Sender, SenderName),
            recipients, subject, textcontent, htmlcontent);

if (isMeetingRequest)
{
    Attachment attachment = new Attachment(); 
    attachment.Filename = "calendar.ics";
    attachment.Content = htmlcontent;
    attachment.Type = "text/calendar";
    msg.Attachments = new List<Attachment> { attachment };
}
await client.SendEmailAsync(msg);

htmlContent 来自另一个形成日历邀请字符串的编码代码段:

private static string MeetingRequestString(string from, List<string> toUsers, string subject, string desc, DateTime startTime, DateTime endTime)
    {
        StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();

        str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VCALENDAR");
        str.AppendLine("PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 12.0 MIMEDIR//EN");
        str.AppendLine("VERSION:2.0");
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("METHOD:REQUEST"));
        str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VEVENT");

        str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTSTART:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmssZ}", startTime));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTSTAMP:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmss}", DateTime.Now));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTEND:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmssZ}", endTime));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("UID:{0}", Guid.NewGuid().ToString()));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("DESCRIPTION:{0}", desc.Replace("\n", "<br>")));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:{0}", desc.Replace("\n", "<br>")));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("SUMMARY:{0}", subject));

        str.AppendLine(string.Format("ORGANIZER;CN=\"{0}\":MAILTO:{1}", from, from));
        str.AppendLine(string.Format("ATTENDEE;CN=\"{0}\";RSVP=TRUE:mailto:{1}", string.Join(",", toUsers), string.Join(",", toUsers)));

        str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VALARM");
        str.AppendLine("TRIGGER:-PT15M");
        str.AppendLine("ACTION:DISPLAY");
        str.AppendLine("DESCRIPTION:Reminder");
        str.AppendLine("END:VALARM");
        str.AppendLine("END:VEVENT");
        str.AppendLine("END:VCALENDAR");

        return str.ToString();
    }

这似乎不起作用。有什么指针吗?

根据您的说明,我检查了此问题并尝试发送包含日历附件的电子邮件。您可以参考以下代码段:

static async Task SendGridAsync()
{
    var client = new SendGridClient("your-api-key");

    var msg = new SendGridMessage()
    {
        From = new EmailAddress("{sender-email}", "{sender-name}"),
        Subject = "Hello World from the SendGrid CSharp SDK!",
        HtmlContent = "<strong>Hello, Email using HTML!</strong>"
    };
    var recipients = new List<EmailAddress>
    {
        new EmailAddress("{recipient-email}", "{recipient-name}")
    };
    msg.AddTos(recipients);

    string CalendarContent = MeetingRequestString("{ORGANIZER}", new List<string>() { "{ATTENDEE}" },"{subject}","{description}", "{location}", DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddDays(2));
    byte[] calendarBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(CalendarContent.ToString());
    SendGrid.Helpers.Mail.Attachment calendarAttachment = new SendGrid.Helpers.Mail.Attachment();
    calendarAttachment.Filename = "invite.ics";
    //the Base64 encoded content of the attachment.
    calendarAttachment.Content = Convert.ToBase64String(calendarBytes);
    calendarAttachment.Type = "text/calendar";
    msg.Attachments = new List<SendGrid.Helpers.Mail.Attachment>() { calendarAttachment };

    var response = await client.SendEmailAsync(msg);
}


private static string MeetingRequestString(string from, List<string> toUsers, string subject, string desc, string location, DateTime startTime, DateTime endTime, int? eventID = null, bool isCancel = false)
{
    StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();

    str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VCALENDAR");
    str.AppendLine("PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 12.0 MIMEDIR//EN");
    str.AppendLine("VERSION:2.0");
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("METHOD:{0}", (isCancel ? "CANCEL" : "REQUEST")));
    str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VEVENT");

    str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTSTART:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmssZ}", startTime.ToUniversalTime()));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTSTAMP:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmss}", DateTime.Now));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("DTEND:{0:yyyyMMddTHHmmssZ}", endTime.ToUniversalTime()));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("LOCATION: {0}", location));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("UID:{0}", (eventID.HasValue ? "blablabla" + eventID : Guid.NewGuid().ToString())));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("DESCRIPTION:{0}", desc.Replace("\n", "<br>")));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:{0}", desc.Replace("\n", "<br>")));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("SUMMARY:{0}", subject));

    str.AppendLine(string.Format("ORGANIZER;CN=\"{0}\":MAILTO:{1}", from, from));
    str.AppendLine(string.Format("ATTENDEE;CN=\"{0}\";RSVP=TRUE:mailto:{1}", string.Join(",", toUsers), string.Join(",", toUsers)));

    str.AppendLine("BEGIN:VALARM");
    str.AppendLine("TRIGGER:-PT15M");
    str.AppendLine("ACTION:DISPLAY");
    str.AppendLine("DESCRIPTION:Reminder");
    str.AppendLine("END:VALARM");
    str.AppendLine("END:VEVENT");
    str.AppendLine("END:VCALENDAR");

    return str.ToString();
}

我也面临着同样的问题 它在Gmail上可以很好地工作,但是在Outlook中,我在电子邮件中看到了邀请文件。当我尝试通过电子邮件打开Invitation.ics时,它会显示“将此Internet日历添加到Outlook”对话框,其中包含一些警告内容。如果单击“是”,它将添加到日历中。因此,默认情况下,邀请不会添加到Outlook中的日历中
