OL97: Owner Not Notified When Delegate Declines Meeting Request

ID: Q195807

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Outlook 97

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Outlook 97, if the delegate of a Calendar declines a meeting request, the owner of the Calendar does not receive a notification, even though the option, "Send meeting requests and responses only to my delegates, not to me," is not selected.

RESOLUTION

When a delegate declines, the following message appears:

   This meeting has been declined and will be moved to the Deleted
   Items folder. Do you want to include comments with your response?

Select "Edit the response before sending." A new message addressed to the meeting organizer appears for editing. The calendar owner's address can be added to the To: or CC: line so that the owner receives notification that the delegate declined.
