You're right, Chris. Public Folders are much harder to use as participatory resource calendars. ERM today only supports mailbox based calendars. We're looking at PF support for a possible future release, but have not scheduled anything yet.

PFs don't have free/busy information, so using a PF is possible, but generally sub optional. However, they can certainyl be scripted to accept meeting requests (don't think even ERM does though since it's a very non standard way of doing things). > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Imran Iqbal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2002 6:03 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > > I have a number of Public Folders setup as calendars for > meeting rooms. > This allows users to easily browse through all of the rooms > and find an available one.
