You mean using korganizerIn? The problem is that sometimes those files are not 
attached but referenced as URL..

What's more likely? Someone sending you a single appointment or someone 
sending you a complete calendar? Face it: Joe User will use his single 
calendar and wants to import new Dates in 99% of all cases...

So lets come to the practical side again: I suggest adding a dcop signal and 
the default action should be to ask the user wether he wants to merge it with 
the active caldendar (is there anything flagging a calendar as "active"?) or 
wants to open the contents in a new calendar view.

Cheers,
