Hi all.. Bear with me, I'm EXTREMLY new to exchange...I'm using (on thte clients) an IMAP account hosted elsewhere, and I'mwanting to use Exchange for shared calendar for users on the domain.I've been told to create a group calendar in the public folders.. But Ihave to admit, I can't figure out how.. And I've been searching forquite some time.. Can someone point me in the right direction?The second thing is, I created mail accounts for everyone in AD.. Thenshared one of those accounts calendars.. Trying to get the feel ofthings..When a user trys to send a meeting request out, they get a bounce backthat the message is not deliverable...-- A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of itsrecipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es)failed:user@mydomain.localunrouteable mail domain "mydomain.local"------Of course, I changed the acutal domain to mydomain in the exampleabove.. And the username to user.In active directory, they have their email addresses listed, but it'sthe actual IMAP email address, not the exchange one..On each machine, they have a profile, in that profile is the IMAPaccount, and the exchange account..Any help would be greatly welcome.ThanksDavid

For group calendar in Exchange public folder, you have to create it in Outlook. In Outlook, navigate to the public folder tree, create a new public folder, under "folder contains" select "calendar items". Grant the permission to the users who need to access this group calendar. Cheers

On the same subject, does anyone know if there is a way to make a public calendar directly accessible through Outlook running on a Windows Mobile smart phone?

That's a great question!!What I ended up doing, as I began this thread.. Was I created a generic user, and then shared his calendar with everyone.. It's working well, although next time around, I'll do it the 'right way'..So it would be great to hear how to :1) Synch up a shared folder calendar2) If you are viewing someones shared calendar, can you view that on the pda?ThanksDavid

Is there some way to get reminders on events in a shared calender located in a public folder?

I know this is a terribly old thread but I landed here and so others could too I guess. For reminders you should take a look at Ken Slovak's extended reminders http://www.slovaktech.com/RM_Reviews.htm
