Article ID: 2598980 - View products that this article applies to.

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:

You send a recurring meeting request to a recipient in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 environment.
The recurrence interval of the recurring meeting request is set to a value that is larger or equal to 25 days. The recurring meeting request has no end date.
The recipient uses Outlook, Outlook Web App (OWA) or an Exchange Web Services-based application, such as a BlackBerry mobile device to accept the recurring meeting request.

In this scenario, the PidLidClipEnd property of the recurring meeting request has an incorrect value. When this issue occurs, the recurring meeting may not visible on the BlackBerry mobile device of the recipient.

CAUSE

This issue occurs because Exchange Server incorrectly assumes that the recurrence interval is in months. This behavior causes the maximum recurrence period check to fail, and the PidLidClipEnd property is set incorrectly to the end time of the first occurrence. A BlackBerry mobile device depends on the PidLidClipEnd property. Therefore, the incorrect property impacts the BlackBerry mobile device synchronization.
