-AutomateProcessing AutoUpdate and Calendar Attendant
Set-MailboxCalendarSettings -Identity "Conference Room 1" -AutomateProcessing AutoAccept This means the resource mailbox in question will automatically accept requests for use, right? Set-MailboxCalendarSettings -Identity "Conference Room 1" -AutomateProcessing AutoUpdate This means the "Calendar Attendant" will process meeting requests for the room, correct? Who, or what, is the Calender Attendant? Does this concept have anything to do with resource delegates?

This is a good article that explains everything, http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2009/02/26/450776.aspxYes, AutoAccept will automatically process the meeting request.This is from the article above: Calendar Attendant automatically places new meetings on the calendar as tentative appointments, updates existing meetings with new information, and deletes out-of-date meeting requests without any client interaction. The Calendar Attendant also processes meeting forward notifications by sending a notification when a meeting request is forwarded and adding meeting attendees to the calendar when a meeting notification is received.

AutoUpdate does not automatically accept meeting requests, AutoAccept does.ThanksWillWill Shepherd - MCSE/MCITP/MCTS (Windows 2008,Exchange 2007,OCS 2007)

Thank you both for the links.Will,Your link may have spared me from asking one more question, because I believe the link addresses it - to some extent:The difference between InPolicy and OutofPolicy parameters.It looks like OutofPolicy would allow certain persons (the boss for example...) to schedule a meeting that "violates" some other policy.For example, not be able to schedule a roommore than xmonths in advance, or something like that.Sound about right?

The AutoAccept parameter can only be placed on a "resource mailbox" (a room or other thing) not a user mailbox. user mailboxes get AutoUpdate, by default. JLH
