I am building an ASP.NET we app and I need to be able to create a task and
add it to a users task list
(sending the task will also be ok as they could then click accept in the
email message through outlook)

I have currently use the Outlook Object model

ApplicationClass outLookApp = new ApplicationClass();
NameSpace NS = outLookApp.GetNamespace("MAPI");
 NS.Logon("Username","password",false,false);

   // Create a new TaskItem.
   TaskItem newTask =
(TaskItem)outLookApp.CreateItem(OlItemType.olTaskItem);
   // Configure the task at hand and save it.
   newTask.Body = "Do some work now";
   newTask.DueDate = DateTime.Now;
   newTask.Importance = OlImportance.olImportanceHigh;
   newTask.Subject = "This is a test task";
   newTask.Assign();
   newTask.Recipients.Add(someone@there.com);
   newTask.Send();

   NS.Logoff();

This way is no good as it means that outlook will popup some security
warnings which need user input. I need a way to create the tasks and
add/send the task automatically.

cheers
