Removing a reviewer from shared calendar

[Tiffany Davidson]

Hello,

I'll give as much information as I can, but this promblen lies within
another user's account and not my own, the info that I have was taken via
phone.

A user tried to remove a person with "review" status from his shared
calendar as the reviewer had transferred. The reviewer is still on the
server and in the GAL but at another location.

When he selects the name and selects remove the name disappears. He applies
the changes and clicks ok. When he opens it up again, the name reappears.
He has also attempted to remove all permissions from this person but they
default back to the same ones as well.

This reviewer is not listed in the Tools Options Delegates list. I have
attempted to add this person and remove them from my own outlook and was
successful.

Does anyone have any ideas of how to get this person off of the shared
calendar of my user?

Any help is greatly appreciated, I hate to have to call the dreaded 1-800
number to our helpdesk - elevator music just kills me

If you do not see anyone in the Delegates tab,
try this:
- RIGHT-CLICK the calendar (Yes, the icon)
- Select PROPERTIES.
- Select the PERMISSIONS tab
Then make sure the default permissions are NONE.
And the ANONYMOUS permissions are NONE.
And delete anyone who is here that you do not want here.

You may need to have the Exchange Administrator use the ESM to
remove the person from the Delegates tab in the Active Directory.

Just a reminder to all, do not use the Delegates tab to give
permissions to anyone to view your calendar.

Delegation

If you're so busy that you don't have time to mind your own busyness,
then you're ready to delegate the responsibility of managing your
calendar to someone else. A delegate manages someone else's
schedule, meetings, and appointments, freely and visibly.

Just as you might have an assistant who helps you manage your
incoming paper mail, Microsoft Outlook provides similar
functionality by making it possible for you to give another person
access to your Inbox and any other Outlook folder you want. The
process of granting someone permission to open your folders,
read and create items, and respond to requests for you is
called “delegate†access.

As the person granting permission, you determine the level of access
the delegate has. You can give a delegate permission to read items in
your folders, or to read, create, modify, and delete items. You can
give a delegate permission to send mail and to respond to mail on
your behalf. The delegate can also organize meetings on your behalf
and respond to meeting requests and task requests sent to you.
By default, if you grant someone access to your folders, that delegate
has access to the items in the folders, except items marked private.
You must grant additional permissions to allow access to private items.

NOTE: The Delegates tab in Outlook’s Options menu is meant to be
used ONLY for delegation.

If a client wants to give others permission to see their Calendar
or "Share" their calendar, they should go to the Properties dialog box
and change the options on the Permissions tab. Usually "REVIEWER"
permissions are plenty enough for anyone to see your calendar.

" Delegates can send items on your behalf. To grant permission
to others to access your folders without also giving them
send-on-behalf-of privileges, go to the Properties dialog box
for each folder and change the options on the Permissions tab."
