I have a worm form that sends appointment details to me via e-mail it
arrives like this:

On 2004-07-13 at 14:37:27,
The following information was submitted:
>From Host: 69.195.249.233

name = Test
submit_by = testing@test.com
Event = Some Event
Location = Some Place
StartMonth = 01
StartDay = 01
StartYear = 2005
StartHour = 03
StartMinute = :25
StartTime =
EndMonth = 01
EndDay = 02
EndYear = 2005
EndHour = 04
EndMinute = :45
EndTime =
discription = Some Discription of an event.

Is there anyway to have it send as an outlook appointment?

Yes - try sending an meeting invitation to a non-MSOutlook MUA to see how.

I tried that it basically arrives in a blank e-mail as an attached file
named <Event Name>.calendar

and the contents look like:

Do you understand where to go from here?
Just mimic the output with your e-mail sender...
