Default Assign Task problem-Can't accept or assign

I cannot accept or assign a task. The assigned Task shows up correctly in my
employee's inbox but when "accept" is clicked, nothing happens. No response.
No showing up in the Tasks folder. The same when I am sent a Task. When I
click "accept", nothing happens to the task. It will not show up in my Tasks
folder. Any clues?

None - any hints, like Outlook/Exchange version?

Outlook 2003 for both myself and the person I'm trying to send Tasks to. She
can't receive any and I can't. The task shows up in the inbox for us both
but nothing happens when we try to accept or decline.

Does it show up as a "task" item? What happens when you try?

I assume it looks correct when it hits our Inboxes because it has Accept or
Decline choices at the top (much like a calendar item). But when you click
either choice, you get nada. No task, no response to the sender, no nothing.
It sits there like an email. It is almost like a switch is off that should
be on somewhere because it happens with her computer and mine and we are
clueless where to begin to look. This was our first foray into Tasks so we
are stuck.

First thing I would try is a Detect and Repair. Help-Detect and Repair if
you did not know.
