The free/busy information for the attendee is incorrect when a meeting organizer uses the Outlook 2007 client to send a meeting request to an attendee

Consider the following scenario. A meeting organizer uses the Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 client to send a meeting request to an attendee. Additionally, one of the following conditions is true:

• The Client Access Server that is used by the meeting organizer and the Client Access Server that reports the free/busy information for the attendee are in different sites. Additionally, they are in different time zones.
• The meeting organizer’s client is configured in a time zone that differs from the time zone of the mailbox server for the organizer and for the attendee.

In this scenario, the free/busy information for the attendee is incorrect on the Scheduling Assistant of the meeting form.

Note This problem does not occur if the meeting organizer uses Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access to schedule the meeting.
