The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Outlook / Exchange 2003 - Updates to Meeting Requests cause mutliple updates to single users

Asked by inverted_2000 in Outlook Groupware Software, Exchange Email Server, Active Directory

Hey everyone,

I dont' know if this is user related or not...but 4 forests / with 6 domains/ and multiple languages are used with users that all request meetings with each other.

Exchange 2003 is used in all 4 forests.  Outlook 2000 / 2003 /2007 for the clients.

I guess the best way to ask this question is to describe an example.

If there are attendees from all the different domains and forests, and if someone updates the meeting request and submits the update to the other attendees, everyone in the other forests receives multiple update/change emails and entries to their calendar.
Sometimes the users catch this before they click the submit button, and then they remove the duplicate entries by hand&but sometimes they dont and each attendee might receive an update to the meeting multiple times.  This only happens to users that are NOT in the same domain though.
So if John, Mike, and Becky are on a meeting request that Becky (who is in the same forest as Mike) creates and everyone accepts&everything is fine.  When Mike, whos in the same forest as Becky updates&say the time&John will have his name in the update to field multiple times.  So if Mike doesnt remove Johns excess email addresses&he will get the request multiple times to change the time.

Any ideas on why this is?  

thanks a bunch,
inverted
