You could also set a reoccurring appointment on their calendar that goes on forever (24-7-365) and set Outlook to automatically process appointment requests and decline conflicting requests.
When the meeting is requested/composed this person's free busy information will appear to always be busy and that will probably prompt a phone call/em to them (or you) which seems to be the goal of this whole exercise. Or they just want to give the impression that they are always to busy or to important to meet with anyone. -----Original Message----- From: McCready, Robert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2002 4:55 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Appointments. Understood sir. They just want to not even receive a request in the first place. Like I said, the easiest thing for them to do is click "Deny Request", but they don't even want to see the request. Someone suggested using the rules wizard to filter it out. I'll give that a try tomorrow. It's late. Thanks!

Unless you have modified the default settings on the calendar, this is not possible in the first place. The default permission settings for each users calendar is for, "Default No access". So unless privileges have been granted by user a or for user a, User B cannot place an item on User A's calendar without a meeting request and User A accepting it. I don't think you can stop a meeting request from being delivered. In any case User B cannot place a meeting on User A's calendar unless User A has granted this privilege to User B.

You can't stop them from trying, you can only stop them from succeeding. You are talking about SENDING an appointment REQUEST, aren't you? It's a request, not a mandate. -----Original Message----- From: McCready, Robert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 25, 2002 3:09 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Appointments. Outlook 98, Exchange 5.5 SP4, NT 4.0 SP6a. Is it possible to block User 1 from trying to make an appointment on User 2's calendar? We have a few management employees (User 2) that do not put EVERYTHING they do on their calendar, and they would prefer not to have other people trying to make an appointment on their calendar, thinking that they are free, when actually they aren't. Yes, the easiest thing to do is to deny the request, but is there a way to block their calendar from even showing up when someone tries to request a meeting? Thanks.
