Help with Personal Folders in Outlook 2000

Hi!

I am using Personal Folders and prefer strongly to have the emails delivered
to the Personal Folders.

The problem I have with this is the Calendaring: Appointments made by others
that I accept are automatically stored in the Calendar under Personal
Folders and thus not available for others. I have to copy the appointment
into the other/shared Calendar each time I accept an appointment - it
happens though (more and more often) that I forget to do this copying, with
the consequence that I am double booked. Another similar problem is that the
National Holidays are also "imported" into Calendar under Personal Folders.

In other words, I have to maintain two parallel calendars.

Any workaround?
(I emphasize that I strongly want to have Personal Folders, and I actually
only need Inbox under Personal Folders, not the other things like Calendar,
Contacts, ...)

Thanks in advance!
Jim

Sorry forgetting to mention that the workaround I so far found useful is to
define a "message role" which moves all the incoming messages from Mailbox /
Inbox to Personal Folders / Inbox.

You cannot have it both ways - sharing calendars and avoiding double booking
requires that your delivery is to the Exchange mailbox.  You message rule to
move all mail items to personal folders does not include appointment items
so it should work just fine.  This is how I have my Exchange mailbox working
at work and it works perfectly.

the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.
