inside mail.google.com, if you can see the 'google chat' "portlet" (or whatever we're calling them these days), type in an email address that isn't currently on your google talk list (but *is* in your inbox) and one of the options that appears is "invite to chat". Whoever you invite, is sent an email that is formatted like the one this list received. It's just like an MSN invite.
