Create Outlook Calendar Event with Python

How to create a calendar event in Outlook from Python without requiring the user to manually accept the event invitation?

I have seen several examples of creating calendar events using emailing emails . However, all of this requires the user to view the email message and approve the event.

I'm developing a small Django app that has some event integration, and when a user creates a "todo" or "reminder" entry, they want the event to appear immediately in their Outlook calendar. By emailing them, this file does just that, but it adds unnecessary work by requiring them to approve the event they just created. Is there a way to get around this?

Also, I'm on a Linux platform, so connecting to Outlook through some custom Microsoft VB component probably won't work.
