Assigning Outlook tasks

[Guest]

When assigning tasks to others, I've checked the "Send me a status report
when the task is complete" box. But for some reason, I get a status report
EVERY time the assignee updates the percentage - whether it's 100% complete
or 25%. Any ideas?

That's irrelevant - what have you ticked for the other setting ? Keep an
updated copy on my Task list - that's the one that's driving the updates.

Yep, unchecking the first box "Keep an updated copy of this task on my task
list" solved the issue. The wording of the 2nd option threw me. Thanks!
