My approach (so far as it goes) has been to create add a new function
into inc/schedule-functions.php to handle mail of the message, and to
call that from within the various other methods there, where you already
have an iTIP message to send.
The bigger issue for me is handling MIME properly, without pulling in a
whole raft of new & unknown dependencies for this one minor feature, but
I've spent some time looking over the RFCs and I think I have something
that's not too objectionable now.
Cheers,
Andrew.
