Dual calenders

B

Brad

To save space on the server I have set a rule to automatically move
everything I receive to a different folder that is in a local pst file. An
unfortunate byproduct of this is the new pst also has a calender. I randomly
get meetings added to this new calendar. Some meetings go to my server based
calendar, some go to the pst based calendar. Outlook tells me I can not
delete the calender in the pst. What can I do to get rid of this extra
calender or at least disable it from being used?

Humm, here in Outlook 2003, it lets me delete it without so much as a
whimper. Perhaps you are archiving to it or it's open or something.

if the pst is set as default, the calendar is in the pst. If you are using
the exchange mailbox as the default and using rules to move messages, the
exchange calendar will be default and all events will go to it... and the
pst will not have a calendar. So... set exchange as the default delivery
location, move all calendar items to it. If you still can't delete it, you
need to make a new pst and move the mail to it, then delete the current one.

Why are you moving everything and not just mail items? Alter your rule so
that it moves only mail messages. Leave everything else alone.
