Moderate an Outlook Calendar?
I've got a mailbox called "green van" that we use to schedule usage of a shared vehicle. Can I assign a moderator to the van/calendar to filter the reservations?
Something like: user submits request, moderator receives request and approves it, event appears on calendar.
In case it matters, the mailbox doesn't belong to a user, it's just for scheduling the van.
Any ideas?

Your best bet is create a calendar folder in your Public Folders section and setup that folder as a moderated folder. If you have a Exchange 2000 environment, you should be able to design the permissions for the folder so you can send an email directly to it (Anonymous to either Contributor or Author).
However if you have to use an actual mailbox, then you can setup either a rule to forward the message to a "moderator" or a moderated public folder. If you must use the mailboxes' calendar, then you must give permissions to the "moderator" to be able to edit and access that calendar folder.
