How do i post emails into outlook calendar (meeting confirmations for example )

RE: Using Microsoft Outlook to manage tasks and diary

Hello Andrew,

It is easy to convert an email message into an appointment or meeting with the Copy to Folder feature in Microsoft Outlook. You can do it as follows:

Step 1: Select the email message that you wish to convert to an appointment.

Step 2: Open the Copy Items dialog box:

In Outlook 2007, please click the Edit > Copy to Folder.
In Outlook 2010 and 2013, please click the Move > Copy to Folder in the Move group on the Home tab.

Step 3: In the Copy Items dialog box,

1) Select the Calendar in the Copy the selected items to the folder: box.
2) Click the OK button.

Step 4: Then an Appointment window opens,

1) Modify the start time in the Start Time box, and modify the end time in the End Time box.
2) Enter appointment location in the Location box.
3) Click the Save & Close button in the Actions group on the Appointment tab.

Then the selected email message is converted to an appointment. And you can find out the new appointment in the calendar that you specified in Step 3.
