MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / April 2007Meeting Room - Not automatically accepting invitations
Hi I'm trying to create a user for a meeting room. The idea is that people invite the room to a meeting and it is supposed to accept the request automatically. I have tried following the instructions in http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/2000/maintain/cfsetup.mspx But it doesn't work. I wander if the problem is that I'm using Exchange 2003/Outlook 2003 and the instructions are for 5.5 but it seems to be the same. Any help would be gratefully received. Ta Shane This should work. Do you have a machine dedicated to the resource? Or, do you use your own machine? I ask because it is important that when you log onto the resource, it will use the local settings on the machine, and save them back to the server when you log off. Therefore, you cannot log back into a "configured resource" on a machine that is not already set with the configuration that you have set. I would re-check your settings against the article to verify that you have not missed anything. What is happening when your clients send a meeting request to the resource? Does the request just sit in the inbox of the resource? Nikki > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Ta Shane Hi Nikki Yes the requests just sit in the inbox. I logged into my PC as the "Meeting Room" user, configured Outlook for the first time and went through the instructions. I then logged out and relogged into the same machine as me. I then tried to use it and it just won't respond until I log back into my machine as the "Metting Room" and manually respond. I've found a couple of articles you mentioned in another post that I'll look while I wait for the sun to get to your side of the world. Thanks for the help Shane > This should work.

Also, make sure you have the mailbox (Not a PST as the delivery point for the mail). When you exit the resource, be sure to use the FILE MENU not the X in the corner. This will make sure that the changes you made are sent back to the server for processing. Nikki > Hi Nikki > [quoted text clipped - 55 lines] >> > >> > Ta Shane You're a star! I took it out of Cached Mode and it works a treat. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. Shane > Make sure you are not in CACHED mode when you log into the > resource.

The earlier post worked without this extra file, but I am using Outlook connected to an Exchange Server. Is this for doing it directly on the server without using Outlook. Actually, now I've got it working I don't need an answer. I'm happy :-) Ta Shane > This would only be necessary if you have an Exchange Server. > [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] > >> > > >> > Ta Shane Yes, this is a more robust scripting/com element that needs to be installed on the server where your resource mailbox lives. If the other is working for you, I would just chalk it down to extra info for possible future use. Nikki > Now I'm confused.
