I have a resource mailbox which has "Automatically accept meeting requests and process cancellations" and "Automatically decline conflicting meeting requests" enabled. For this mailbox I have registered an eventsink, but this event sink not firing ever. I have another mailbox which does NOT have Automatically accept enabled, there the event sink works fine. How can i make the Event sink to fire on my 1st mail box. Any help and/or thoughts ..
Where is the event sink registered is it on the calendar or the Inbox ? When people use Outlook Direct Booking (which is what you are using by turning on "Automatically accept meeting requests and process cancellations) to book a meeting room a Message is never sent to that mailbox. The appointment is placed directly in the resource mailboxes calendar have a look at http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/skedresource.htm and http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=300618 . In that case if you have an event sink attached to the inbox then I wouldn't expect it to fire. If you want this type of functionality from an Event sink you might want to look at Auto Accept sinks from Microsoft or Sourceforge. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/guides/AutoAcceptAgent/9ed501ad-c7eb-49b4-9bbd-5a047d797dd3.mspx http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=160164 Cheers Glen "Sandeep" wrote in message news:7639AF43-DD0E-428A-B771-63345CB71DD6@microsoft.com... >I have a resource mailbox which has > "Automatically accept meeting requests and process cancellations" and > "Automatically decline conflicting meeting requests" enabled.

I tried on both Inbox and calendar, it did not fire in either box. I think it should it fire in calendar, am i Right? Does MS - AutoAccept provide support to fire scripts? or can be modified to support custom actions?

It should fire on the calendar when the new item is added to the calendar the Iflags value would be different then if it was triggered by a delivered email. Are you doing any filtering based on Iflags or are you putting any conditions in the Event sink registration itself? The autoaccept sinks are for resource room bookings if you want more functionality then they offer you would have to modify the code and then recompile the sink the source code for the one on Sourceforge is available on that site. The MS one is closed source so what you see is what you get.

I downloaded the project from Sourceforge and modified to suit the custom needs, this project works great for me. Thanks for pointing out to the right direction.
