Notes on how to act as a delegate in MS-Outlook on Exchange
- In Manage another person’s mail and calendar items, you can learn form the source, how to:
- Cornell.edu has generally good instructions for their similar Outlook/Exchange environment, so I just quote them :
Create meeting requests on behalf of your manager: You must be viewing your manager’s calendar in order for the meeting request to appear to come from them rather than you. (How do I view my manager’s calendar?)
If you have more than one calendar open (many people leave both their own calendar and their manager’s calendar open), click anywhere in your manager’s calendar before creating the meeting request.
Notice that in the Scheduling Assistant, your name will not appear. Instead, your manager’s name is included. Which is what you want. So that’s good. Respond to meeting requests on behalf of your manager: [with delegate access,] You can respond to these messages in exactly the same way you would respond to an invitation sent to you.
Step-by-step how to set up a delegate for your mail account in MS-Outlook 2010 on MS-Exchange 2010
We are just using the default options here – explore more on your own, as you wish (e.g. Let someone else mind your busyness). You need to use MS-Outlook – I don’t see an option in OWA to set up delegate access. But your delegate will carry over to OWA if you prefer to use the webmail client.
Next question: what does the delegate see/do?
Can’t rename default folder names for Room and resource mailboxes with MFCMAPI
- To get the MS-Exchange calendar ICS to include a name line other than “X-WR-CALNAME:Calendar” (which, when trying to aggregate calendars, does not play well with other mailbox calendars also emitted by MS-Exchange with default name )
- when trying to follow the renaming instructions here using MFCMAPI (which seem however for personal mailboxes, not the different folder hierarchy: “information store”).
- I only get this 0x8004011b mapi_e_corrupt_data (would have kind of surprised me they had let me mess with MS-Exchange, this is not PST world anymore):
- Is there another way to rename room/resource mailbox calendars? Seems like not. But there is a recommended feedback form for this (or is this for office online only, not for exchange on premise?).
If MS-Exchange room mailbox does not auto-decline, but forwards conflicting requests
- This room should auto-decline conflicting requests, but forwards them:
- If you log in as the room and look under Options / See more options / Settings / Resource:
- You see that 433d has it wrong here:
- 434 has it set correctly:
Protected: Facilitating equipment circulation and room booking with website calendar aggregation?
Why does MS-Exchange calendar publishing with Limited details show the name of the organizer in the subject?
- Partial answer: Because the organizer name gets already put into the booking itself, before publishing (I first thought it was put in by a bug the publishing settings, where there is supposed to be an option to enable/disable showing the organizer name ). UPDATE: Another part of the answer: AddOrganizerToSubject is set to true on the mailbox (Doh! Hm, but why did this not seem to cause a problem before)?
- Booking:
- Result (I saw the correct “whence”part of the subject briefly flickering up, but then the organizer name appeared in front of it):
- Publishing Setting:
- Published View (which is where we do not want the organizer to show):
2010 SP?.
Scheduling assistant shows no information on free/busy
This effectively prevents all reservations of shared equipment. We tested with these 4 resources, and increasingly nearer dates in the future (from May to today). This is in Offcie265 from a student account. From a staff account in OWA, I do not see the same behavior: 
Update: A resolution is being worked on… Update2: FIXED
