Well, .ics attachments don't include category or project information.
A script to send a single task or note could be written. Then you'd need
another at the other end if you want to get it into a copy of Entourage
there (projects don't make sense anywhere else). If both people have
Entourage 2004, you could instead use a shared project on a server, like an
iDisk, instead of email.
For multiple as well as single tasks and notes (or indeed, calendar events,
contacts, and much else), to include categories but not projects, and so
useful in Entourage X (or 2001) as well as 2004, you could each get copies
of my shareware "Export-Import Entourage" from
MacScripter.net <
http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>
which does just that. You can send selected items for your Tasks and Notes
list, or by category, etc., and export and import them all at once.
