OWA Calendar URL changed for user
Hi,
We have a SharePoint 2007 web part, which logs in and displays a users Outlook calendar information via webdav and OWA.
The default OWA URL of one of our users calendar has changed from
http://exchangeserver/exchange/user/calendar
to
http://exchangeserver/exchange/user/calendar1
Within the standard Outlook client 2007 or 2010 the calendar is named correctly. It's just when accessing from OWA that the name has changed. This is then causing login problems for the web part.
I've logged onto the profile with MFCMAPI and have tried to change the URL back to the standard format (PR_URL_NAME, PR_URL_NAME_A) ANSI value. But it doesn't accept it.
I've still to try the following Outlook switch - outlook.exe /resetfoldernames
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to change the URL back to the standard format? Is it possible somewhere in IIS?
It's not possible to change the code in the web part to accept the changed value for the one user.
Running Exchange 2003 SP2 server, 2003 domain.
Thanks...

Calendar1 appears to be an additional or sub calendar of the users Mailbox
If this is a sub calendar or additional calendar the URL needs to be
https://<ServerName>/exchange/User

Thanks for the replies. The change in the URL format works great if manually navigating via IE. However I need the standard format as noted above due to the SharePoint web part only accepting:
http://exchangeserver/exchange/user/calendar
Unfortunately, I can't change how the web part uses the URL. See from the screenshot how only when accessing the user mailbox via OWA the calendar on the bottom left has been renamed to calendar1. When using MFCMAPI I can see the value for the URL has changed.
When I try to change calendar1 to calendar I get the attached message. It's odd as the main Outlook Calendar is present, it doesn't seem to be an additional calendar just the URL name has changed for OWA.
