Send on behalf calendar acceptance
Hello Experts, I have an issue I'm hoping you can help with. Recently a meeting request was sent out to all executives. One executive accepted the meeting invite but the accepted reply was for this executive and another. None of the executives are delegates for the others and should not be able to accept meetings on the "behalf of" anyone but themselves. In researching the issue we checked their Outlook client to make sure there are no delegates, checked the information store in the case of funky permissions, and checked shared calendar permissions.
I researched on the web and found that there are known issues with iPhone firmware 3.0 which could cause this kind of behavior. Most of the executives have iPhones. As a precaution I'm having them all ugprade to that latest firmware but I want to make sure there isn't anything on the Outlook/Exchange side I might be missing. Therefore my question is:
When a user is not a delegate of another user nor are they the owner of the others calendar, how could they send on behalf of another invited user to a meeting? How can I prevent this from occuring?
Thank you!

If you are an iPhone user and send a meeting request to a distribution list that you belong to you will have issues. I don't believe Apple has fixed this bug yet. The fix is to add the meeting attendees to the request individually or create a new distribution list for the organizer to use that does not include his/her account.
Also there are 2 places to check for those types of permissions in AD - one is the Send As permission on the Security tab and the actual "send on behalf of" option is on one of the Exchange tabs - make sure you check both places.

When you refer to the "Send As" permission you're referring to the security tab on the mailbox store correct? If so then that's a negative on both the store and the AD "send on behalf" option. No delegates have been setup for either user so as far as I can see it looks like it's just the iPhone bug. I wanted to exhaust all other avenues of exploration without giving the response that the problem was the phone.

Ah, thanks for clarifying that for me. It's the same in this case, no access. So at this point I'm going to leave it "as is" until a fix is released. Thanks for your help ob1 you were my only hope. :)
