More likely, it's that you're using Exchange as your mail server at work, and it's not translating outbound meeting requests into iCalendar.

Sue, thanks, very much. It's still a lot more cumbersome than what happens
when I email appointments from the office to home -- I just click on them and
click "Save" -- but it gets me there.
I really appreciate it.
Is this due to the fact that one version of Outook is Professional and the
other is the Small Business edition?

Sue, when I receive the appointment at work (emailed from my home computer),
and click on it, it opens in a window that's sort of like an appointment. In
the title bar, there's the calendar icon in the top left corner and the name
of the appointment.
Underneath that, there's a menu toolbar with File, Edit, View, etc.
Underneath that, there's another toolbar that has options for Accept,
Tentative, Decline and Propose New Time, but these options are grayed out.
This tool bar also has options for Calendar...., Save, Attach and Delete.
The next line says, "This meeting is not in the Calendar; it may have been
moved or deleted.
The next line is "To...", with a space for me to insert an emial address.
What I can't figure out is how to save it as an appointment in my calendar.
It works fine on the other end, at my home computer.
At the office we use Outlook 2003 Small Business Edition. At home we use
Outlook 2003 Professional Edition.
If I enter a new appointment at the office, I can email to my home email
address by clicking "Forward as iCalendar." Then when I get home I can click
on the appointment, and click save and it will be in my calendar on my home
computer.
However, when I forward appointments from home to the office, I can't save
them to the calendar that way. Any suggestions?
