Change default calendar on a exchange mailbox
Hello,
We are running SBS 2008 with Exchange 2007 in out office. For user1 we have two calendars in his mailbox
1. Calendar - the default calendar folder
2. User Calendar - secondary one
Currently if he receives a request for a meeting, and accept it - it goes to Calendar. How do I change that the User Calendar to be default location for appointments?
Thank you

I am talking about having two calendars in one mailbox. It is not about having two mailboxes or 2 pst files
I think this would work
file->Data file management->Click on the personal folder that has the calendar you need to show as default-> Set it as default.

You can't change the default calendar for a user from the one that is originally part of their mailbox to a different one -- and I'm not sure why you would.
You can, however, create a rule for any item which is a "meeting invitation or update" and "move it to the specified folder" -- and when you click the "specified" option you can select any calendar available within their Outlook.
