Auto accept Agent for Exchange 2003

If you want to automatically process meeting requests for resource mailboxes try the Auto Accept Agent for Exchange 2003.  It's an asynchronous event sink that processes meeting requests in a first in, first out ourder at the server.  It automatically accepts or declines meeting requests if:

  • If the entire span of time between the start and end times of the meeting request is marked as free on the resource calendar, the meeting request is accepted.
  • If any portion of the span of time between the start and end times on the meeting request is marked as busy or tentative on the resource calendar, the meeting request is declined.
  • If a meeting update is requested that overlaps the time of the original meeting, Auto Accept Agent does not consider the time of the original meeting as busy and allows the update to be processed. For example, if you schedule a meeting for 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Friday and then send an update to reschedule this meeting from 3:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Friday, Auto Accept Agent accepts the update even though the resource appeared as busy.

There is supporting documentation about Deploying and Administering the Agent here, and you can read about this, and other tools released for Exchange on Evan's blog.
