I understand setting your default reminders etc for your calendar for
meetings you create. However, when you accept a meeting from someone else,
does it keep their reminder settings that were set upon creation of the
meeting or does your settings change/override them to match your normal
default?

We are using Outlook 2007 with exchange. My normal reminder default is 15
minutes before the meeting is due. My co-worker sent me a meeting request,
which she set as No Reminder, All day event, Free, to let me know she was
going to be on vacation that day. When I accepted it, it changed to have a
15 minute reminder. We have since tested this a number of times and get
inconsistent results, sometimes the reminder changes and sometimes it doesnt.
Can you please clarify how it is supposed to work?

In this situation, it's probably a bug.
