User gets a recurring appointment whenever they accept an invitation.
One user (of 50) gets a recurring appointment whenever they accept an invitation. Everyone else gets it as non-recurring (which is correct) so the invite isn't issued as recurring. Using Server 2003, Exchange 2003, XP Pro, Outlook 2003 SBE. New install with a newly added user. Everything else working fine. Have opened the message and tried to "remove recurrence". It just reverts back to recurring. Thoughts?

I had already done this. Still having the issue.
The laptop is a Dell Vostro. Is there some other dellware that is causing me an issue.
I called their standard tech support dept and got nothing.

Does this person have a mobile device? Blackberry?
Have you tried deleting the user's AD Account and mailbox, removing the Outlook Profile, and recreating?

Trying to avoid that solution as the AD GUID is used by an industry specific program. Failed to mention that there is a terminal server in the mix. If the user accepts the invitiation thru TS, then no problem. Again, only one of 50 users has this issue. I'm reloading the PC next weekend from the Dell embedded image... will let you know. Thanks for your thoughts.

Tried wiping the profile and had the user log back in.
Same issue.
We are using Roaming Profiles. I am going to give the roaming profile a new name in AD (wipe it out). Copy the files to a new user profile on the PC and see what happens. I think you're on the right track. I'll let you know. Thanks.

Why are you using roaming profiles? They aren't really necessary in an SBS-based environment.

Problem was somewhere in the roaming profile. Created a new "Outlook" profile and all is well.
Jeff-TechSoEasy - Thanks for all your thoughts. Am awarding points based on your effort.
BTW: This wasn't as SBS based environment.
As for Roaming Profiles - with "offline files" being so time consuming t logon / logoff and trouble ridden (the Cache directory keeps getting corrupted), Roaming Profiles is the best way for users to have their own files on their laptop, backed up to the server and also available on the terminal server.
Thanks again for your comments.
