Sent meeting request in Outlook. Received reply from non-recipient.

by gsi_tech . Updated 16 years, 5 months ago

This is a very strange issue.

I’m running a Windows SBS2000 server (AD and Exchange). All clients
are Outlook 2003. Twice this has happened, where a user(different
user both times) will send a meeting request to other users in the
office and the senders have received an out of office reply from a user
to whom the meeting request was not sent.

Both times this occurred it was the same recipient whom they received
the out of office reply from. In both cases, Out of office assistant was
enabled on that users account.

Both times I checked the headers on the original message and also
confirmed there was no mail forwarding enabled. I also tested this
after, by sending a meeting request from the senders computer, to
the recipients in the original meeting request, and I could not
duplicate the problem.

I’m a little stumped.
