Why is a users exchange 2003 mailbox forwarding meeting requests to an old user account
My CEO Changed assistants about a year ago and everytime he receices a meeting request the request is forwarded to his old assistant but since she is no longer with the company he gets a kick back that the email account doesn't exist. My helpdesk has been working the issue without success for months now and it finaily got sent to me. The old assistant doesn't have any permissions delagate or otherwise to the CEO's mailbox. The helpdesk tells me there are no outlook rules that could be sending the meeting request and he has been given a new loptop since the problem started but if i show the exchange message tracking log i see that the CEO's account sent the meeting request to /O=ORGANIZATION/OU=FIRST ADMINISTRATIVE GROUP/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=OLD
I would try start outlook in safe mode and temporarily disable all rules. Also double check the delegate setup.

the delegate setup has been checked and checked again i even check using a fancy exchange delegates and permissions powershell script i found on the net.
I happens even if outlook isn't open and all of his rules have been deleted from outlook and recreated

have you tried outlook in safe mode?
sorry my bad, you already said even with outlook closed this still happenes. So got to be a server side rule.
so this only happenes to meeting requests? how about regular emails?

Nothing is happening with anything but meeting request so natrualy i thought delegates i am going to try to run the Microsoft MAPI editor to see if i can find anything. there isn't anything in ad no forwarding or anything like that. I boss wouldn't go for removing exchange attributes and re associating the account so he isn't going to let me recreate the CEO's account. I was actualy thinking of recreating the account to stop the kick backs i may give that a shot to buy me some time.
