Hello Friends : I am really confused in understanding the meaning of resource mailbox , i know that they are used for meeting rooms and laptops and such things , but what does they exactly do , i want to know a real world scenario of them to understand them !!! thank you.Network is my LOVE

For a meeting room, the resource mailbox will automatically process requests, prevent duplicate bookings, send a response if required, etc...In other words, its like an automated attendant. Users can add the shared mailbox to their profiles as well.Prior to Exhange 2007, you would have to use an auto-attendant service or 3rd party product to achieve the same thing.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124374.aspxhttp://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2007/management-administration/managing-resource-mailboxes-exchange-server-2007-part1.html

So say you had a conference room that many people wanted to use for meetings. People are able to reserve this resource for their meetings. Mark Morowczynski|MCT| MCSE 2003:Messaging, Security|MCITP:EMA 2K7,EDA Win 7,ES,SA,EA|MCTS:Windows Mobile Admin|Security+|http://almostdailytech.com
