Hello. I am working in Outlook 2002 with Exchange 2000 on the back end.
When I send meeting invitations, the recipients receive two copies. Does
anyone know why this could be?

Thanks.

Are they delegates to somebody? Are the letters all same (headers
informations)?

Yes, this person is sending the meeting invitation on behalf of her boss. I
had her send me one on behalf of her boss and I only received one copy. She
tells me that the duplicates happen more than 50% of the time, but not 100%
by any means.

I did not understand your question about the headers? Can you elaborate and
clarify on that please? Thanks for all you help. Any information on this is
GREATLY appreciated.

I was thinking that you send invitation to delegates and the boss too. So she
get her own invitation and boss invitation too. You can see the defference
from header. Or boss have done rule that every time he gets invitation,
forward a copy to delegates and in Tools -Options -Delegates he have selecet
send a copy to my delegates (so outlook do same thing 2 times)

The lady sends a meeting invitation to the team, say three other ladies, on
behalf of the boss. The three ladies receive one tenative calendar item and
two e-mails asking to accept/reject. The the best of my knowledge there are
no rules on the inbox. This happens not just when sending invitations to
people in this group. It is a fairly widespread problem.
