Send Task Item without using Outlook Interop dll

Question

Hi,

I need to send the outlook task item programatically without interop dll. This code will run on the machine where there is no MS Office installed.

Ms Office is to be installed for using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.dll, So I need to build the code without using Outlook Interop.

Suggest some ideas or code to complete my above requirement.

Thanks in advance!!

There is no "standard" (like smtp, pop, etc. for mails) for tasks as they are an outlook/exchange - specific implementations.
This means that either you use interop or use Exchange Service webservices:
