According to the emacs wiki:

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/iCalendar

there is no general parser available for these but org-mode has some of
the necessary functionality.  add-event-to-planner can probably be
triggered on a .ics attachment explicitly.  I don't know enough about
iCalendar to be more useful, sorry, but I am interested in support of
iCalendar as well.
