| If you're going to paste HTML into an Outlook item body it must be valid
HTML. You will need to do string processing on what's being pasted in before
you paste the string.
The "<" and ">" characters aren't the only ones that are going to be
problems for you and that must be escaped. You also will need to look out

| You'd have to hack into the Outlook code to do that. All of that sort of

between Outlook and whatever telephony app is being used you can use your
own code to make the numbers compliant, otherwise you'd need to wait for MS
to change Outlook to make it compliant, if MS ever does that.

| What you're missing is what you're going to run into with methods/events
that overload the same keyword in all managed code. In this case
AppointmentItem doesn't directly expose the Send event since it uses the
