Default Can you limit the number of people who accept a meeting?

Judy, is this on a mail message or the appointment item? I don't see the option for Voting on Appointment items.

So, you are saying that you send the separate available dates as voting options, have the recipients select one and reply. Then you schedule the meeting based on their choices? Do you have a sorting option to gather all the same selections together and then create the appointment automatically? Just curious as this idea had not occurred to me.

Seems like a lot of work for the organizer but, if it works, okay by me.
