If you have an Outlook client running on the same machine as PHP, you
should be able to use COM calls to access the data.

Here's MS's Outlook Object Model site for "Outlook Item Objects"
including MeetingItem:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/off2000
/html/olmscOutlookItemObjects.asp

I've done this in VBA and I've access MapPoint via PHP through a COM
call, but havn't done Outlook via PHP yet.

But that's probably how I'd do it if I could get it to work right and
had to use PHP for it.

It's probably 'cleaner' but maybe more difficult to access the server
directly and/or parse a .PST file (which isn't going to be available if
you have everything on the server side.. Unless you have "Work Offline"
mode enabled).
