Free/Busy data is not showing for mail enabled Public Folders in Exchange 2003?
Exchange 2003 Standard (only one in company)
Outlook 2007 Client
When I add a user to the scheduling feature in a New Meeting Request I can see that user's free/busy information in the color coded bars. The problem I am having is that when I add a mail enabled Public Folder the free/busy information does not show. I get a message "No information. No free/busy information could be retrieved."
Do I have to do anything on the exchange side of it, could there be something that I need to change on the Outlook (client) side of it, or is it not possible to see the free/busy information for mail enabled Public folder's in Exchange 2003 using Outlook 2007.
Please refer to the attach pic for exactly what I mean.
THanks!

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
The way I tell clients is that the Public Folder method should be thought of like an electronic version of a diary at reception. Manual intervention required.
If you use a resource mailbox then automatic booking is possible, but you lose the ability to look at an overview.
