I have an issue that has popped up lately.

On my Business email, under Exchange server I've always setup rules to move
specific emails to my Personal Folder, since we have a limite for Inbox size.
So, all the emails from my boss, colleagues goes into specific Personal
folders.

With this rule even Meeting Invites are moved there, and IN THE PAST, using
Outlook 2003, when I accepted them, it was BOTH created in Outlook Calendar
(OST/exchange server), AND, on my Personal folder.

However, lately with Outlook 2007, whenever I accept a meeting invite, it
ONLY shows up in my Personal Calendar and NOT on the main Outlook calendar,
hence not on the exchange server, and therefore I can't see it on my
Blackberry!

What's the solution to this? Is this a server setup? Outlook 2007
limitation? Rule setting change in 2007?

Our IT departement is kind of clueless and they said I basically have no
choice, BUT IT DID WORK in 2003!!!

Any help is appreciate!

Add an exception to the rule so that only mail is moved - use except if
meeting - it's the 3rd from the bottom of the exceptions.

Change your rule so that only items that use the Message form get moved. This
will leave calendar requests and task assignments in the Exchange mailbox. In
the Rules Wizard, in addition to the action(s) you've already selected, select
the "uses the form name for" action and click the underlines "form name". In
the drop-down at the top, choose "Application Forms". In the list that will
appear in the pane below the drop-down, choose "Message" and click Add. Click
Finish. Now your rule will behave as before, but only move mail, not anything
else.
