The response status for a recurring meeting is cleared after Auto Accept Agent accepts a request to delete one instance of the meeting in Exchange Server 2003

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. In Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, you deploy Microsoft Exchange Server Auto Accept Agent on a resource mailbox. Then, you submit a request to delete one instance of a recurring meeting. In this scenario, you notice that the response status for this recurring meeting is cleared after Auto Accept Agent accepts this request. Therefore, the status of the recurring meeting appears as "Unaccepted." And, the time of the recurring meeting may be available on the resource calendar.

When you log on to the resource mailbox, you may be prompted to accept a request for the recurring meeting for which the response status has been cleared.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because Auto Accept Agent uses Collaboration Data Objects for Exchange (CDOEX) to process a request to delete an instance of a recurring meeting. When CDOEX modifies the Exceptions collection, CDOEX always clears the response status for this collection. Auto Accept Agent does not accept the recurring meeting again after CDOEX modifies the Exceptions collection.
