Hi,

I have the same problem as ripper, but i am using Outlook 2000. What, if
any, is the fix for this version?

I have already used the "Services - Delivery" Option to set the Exchange
server as the defalt place for new mail, and have many rules to fwd emails
and recipts to my various PSTs (which i guess include meeting requests). But
when i accept meeting requests from the PST, they go into the PST Calendar,
not the exchange calendar. Is there any way to delete the PST Calendar? Or is
it better to recreate the PST from scratch?

Thanks
Steve

Can you simply leave the invites in your mailbox instead of having them
moved to a PST? Why are you moving so much to the PST files?
