I am also having this issue. And it also seems to happen randomly. Not sure
if the calendar is a "public folder" calendar but it is for a meeting room
that I'm in charge of. People set up meeting requests and "invite" the room
so they can reserve the room. The Meeting Room is like another "user", it
has its own inbox, calendar, deleted items, tasks, etc. I just have the
inbox and calendar listed in my Outlook shortcuts so I can see when something
shows up in the inbox (the number shows up for unread items). When I see
there is something in the inbox, I open the request and if there are no
conflicts, I accept it. Every once in a while, I notice an odd item on my
own calendar and it turns out to be a meeting that I accepted for the meeting
room. On my calendar, it shows as tenative and that I haven't accepted it
yet. On the meeting room calendar, it shows when I accepted and the time as
busy. I'm only one with access to view the actual calendar so I know these
requests are created from someone elses calendar and they invite the meeting
room. I've looked at the requests to see if I can see a difference between
one that showed on my calendar and one that did not. I can't see any
difference. They always put the meeting room as a required attendee and I
always accept the requests the same way. This seemed to start when they
upgraded my computer from Windows XP to Windows 2003. I am using Outlook
2003 (11.5608.5606). Is this just some weird quirk I need to get used to?
Thanks!!
