I've run into a problem with Auto Accept(I think).

My problem is that I have 2 out of 9 resources (all are using Auto Accept)that can't be opened with Outlook 2000. Let me be a little more specific... I can open the resources in Outlook, but as soon as I click on the calendar, Outlook freezes. Task Manager says that the Application is not responding, but my CPU usage is at 100 %. I've been using AA for over a year and have run into this problem a couple of times and each time I've had to delete the
resource and create a new one. I just did this about 5 weeks ago and now I
have two more resources that are doing it again. Has anyone ever seen this
problem?

I'm running Exchange Server 5.5, SP4 on an NT4 OS with SP6a, Auto Accept
4.0. I have tried to get in touch with Robert Strong, but he does not
answer e-mails or the phone number associated with his web domain and his web page (www.exchangecode.com) has not been updated since 6/20/00. (I think he has either given up on developing this application or died.)

I would apprciate any assistance in this matter.

Thanks in advance.

We encounter the same problem on a regular basis. It's usually due to a corrupted meeting request posting to the calendar. I go into the mail account using the "old" Exchange client which does not lockup when accessing the calendar. Create a new appt based folder, open the calendar and move the most recent meetings out into the new folder. Then test opening calendar in Outlook, if OK then I know the problem is with one of the meetings I have moved. I then move the meetings one at a time back into the calendar and after each move test opening in Outlook. When Outlook locks up, I know which meeting caused the problem.
