Is it possible to disable - Outlook Calendar Email Notifications?

Hi all, hope you are well.

I have recently had a query from a PA to an MD where she makes a change to an appointment in his calendar even a simple edit, he obviously receives notification of this change. I have looked pretty much all over and am not familiar with such a function but is anyone aware if it possible to disable this function as that is what they are asking for to happen.

So she manages his calendar and when she makes changes he receives the email notification, the question is simply is anyone aware of a way to disable this function? I'm of the opinion that if there is it will be a global rather than explicit function.

The other option I thought was to setup a rule in Outlook to delete such notifications I guess?

EXCHANGE 2010 AND OUTLOOK 2010 are in play here

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

This is with an exchange server mailbox? Outlook doesn't send updates and I didn't think Exchange did either. In Outlook, you need to use a macro or an addin to send a change notification.

I have amended my original post to confirm this is Outlook 2010 via an Exchange 2010 server. When the PA amends an entry in the MD's Calendar he received a calendar/email notification to confirm the change has been made. This is what I am trying to see if it is possible to stop.

Does that make more sense?
