Exchange 2003 Resource Booking From Outlook 2010
I happened to open up my calendar to reschedule a meeting and I noticed that none of my meetings were listed on the room schedules. The friendly administrators at my client site told me that nothing's changed; therefore, I deduced, the issue was in Outlook 2010.
A quick search turned up a knowledge base article that tells me that "by default, Outlook 2010 does not implement the direct booking code that is used in earlier versions of Outlook. Instead, a meeting request is sent to the resource mailbox in the same manner in which a meeting request is sent to regular meeting attendees." Great! So I have to modify the registry to make Outlook work the way it used to work!
This entire Office 2010 release seems to push users and administrators alike to push to later technologies -- a lot of 2003 features are being phased out! Don't get me started on PowerPoint...
