Default Forcing the "Send teh response now" option when accepting a meetin

We recently migrated from GroupWise to Exchange/Outlook. When our users are
receiving meeting appointments, they are clicking accept and then receiving a
prompt to either "Edit the response before sending", "Send the response now",
or "Don't send a response".

Our meeting coordinator is having trouble figuring out who is attending the
meetings becuase people are choosing "Don't send a response", probably
because they are under the impression that the response has already been sent
as was the case with GroupWise. To ease the transition to Outlook, we'd like
to force the response to be either Edit or Send. Or even better yet, it
would be nice to have the "Send a response" option always fire off without
prompting. Can this be done?

Nope. The solution is training. Have they been given any yet? There are
many differences between GroupWise and Outlook that drive users batty.

That's disappointing. Our users have received some training and more is on
its way, but training can only alleviate the problem, not solve it. It would
be nice if Outlook would allow an administrator to force the “correct” answer
through a GPO or other means.
