    OutLook - Exchange - Pop3 Problems

    Hey guys,

    Gonna lay out a little problem for you here and see if anyone can offer some device.

    2 organisations - one in base office, one in remote site

    org1 - users access via outlook client - exchange 2003
    org2 - users access via outlook client - pop3


    Both orgs are accessed via one mailbox with exchange and pop settings configured.

    Mail to and from all works fine

    The query is this - When sending a meeting request from the outlook client sending from org2 to someone in org2, the meeting request is received fine. This can also be accepted fine. 2 things tho - 1- the sender is actually the acccount at org1. 2. When the recipient accepts the meeting, a notification never gets through to the originator letting them know its accepted.

    Now as far as im concerned this should never work as they want it to - ie the meeting coming from the outlook client as org2 and going via pop3. I didnt think meetings could go via pop3 as they dont have a calender?
    However, im not sure why the notification saying the recipient has accepted, never gets there.

    I know its a bit confusing - by all means ask questinos which may help me clarify.

    Thanks in advance.

    you can still send meeting requests as .vcf files ( you can do this to external addresses )

    however its only a 1 way communication , which is why you dont get the receipts. ( they are using local folders with outlook in org 2 - they might as well be using outlook express :S )

    are org 1 and 2 seperate entities or is org 2 a branch office of org 1 that doesn't reall have any connectivity to org 1 ?
