Hi!

I'm experiencing trouble when sending meeting invites between different
Exchange servers as explained in the below scenario. All testing has been
done via OWA so Outlook issues should be eliminated

Customer1 - Server1 - SBS2003SP1 with ExchangeSP2 installed
Customer2 - Server2 - SBS2003SP1 with ExchangeSP1 installed
Customer3 - Server3 - SBS2003SP1 with ExchangeSP2 installed
Customer4 - Server4 - SBS2003SP1 with ExchangeSP1 installed'

Customer1 sends a meeting invite to Customer2. When Customer2 receives this
invite, the accept and reject buttons are displayed and he can use 'em fine.
The message is displayed as a calender entry in the Inbox. Customer2 then
sends a meeting invite to Customer1, but when Customer1 views this invite,
the accept and reject buttons are not showed. It is displayed as a normal
email in the Inbox.

Customer1 then sends a meeting invite to Customer3 but alas the invite does
display the accept and reject buttons and the invite is displayed as a normal
email in Customer 3's Inbox. The same happens when Customer3 tries to invite
Customer1.

Customer2 tries to send a meeting invite to Customer4, and this works just
fine, all buttons are displayed, and Customer4 can also invite Customer2 just
fine, but not Customer1 or Customer3.

So this leaves me with the following conclusion. Something in ExchangeSP2 is
preventing the users from receiving meeting invites from users located on
other servers than they're own server - which I forgot to say works just fine.

This is probably easy to fix, but I just can't seem to figure out how to fix
it, so if you know how to fix it, please let me know

I'd suggest that you post in either microsoft.public.exchange.clients or in one of the SBS forums, since this is apparently a server issue.
