I cannot find anything that shows how to get a public folder calendar to
auto-accept a meeting request without some type of add-on (script). I
recommend you try using a resource account for this type of functionality.
Since the default permissions on a resource account mailbox will be
Reviewer, all users should be able to access/read the calendar for the
resource account (File - Open - Other User's Folder)
