mime-attachment.ics acceptance...!!!...???

How in the world can an iphone user see or accept an outlook calendar invite? Everytime anyone from my windows office sends me a Microsoft Office Outlook calendar invite it shows up as a "mime-attachment.ics"... All I can do from my iphone i see the file but I'm unable to open it or even have the option of accepting or declining the Outlook invite...!
I've really tried to look within the support nd forums but only eem to find scant info. on the subject. Not even AT&T nor Apple phone support can help.They just keep repeating the same thing... if the file is not in the apple acceptable format, the iphone can't see it nor open it nor deal with it.

So is it true? If I get an outlook email calendar invite then I'm screwed!?

HP, Windows Vista, outlook calendar

You are correct, you can't do anything with that windows format "stuff" on the phone. On the mac, iCal will open the attachment and accept/decline the invite. MobileMe will then sync it back to the phone calendar. I assume you can do something similar on a windows box.
