Resource Mailbox Not Declining Conflicting Appointments
Running Exchange 2010 - resource mailboxes are not declining apointments when another apointment exists. As far as I can tell this is happening with all resource mailboxes in our org. Not sure where to start but here are the results of a Get-CalendarProcessing roomname

Is it accepting them?
It looks to me like you have AllBookInPolicy set to $False and you're forwarding all requests to the delegates.

Hi,
For your information, it is my meeting room configuration which works fine with conflict settings:
RunspaceId : 6175c06e-d33e-489e-b85e-e38365545cb6

Please change the configuraton according to the above. If the issue continues, create a new room mailbox and test again.

It looks like the only setting that is different is the AllBookInPolicy setting. Is there a way to change that for all resource mailboxes in my org?

You can use PowerShell.
Get-Mailbox -RecipientTypeDetails RoomMailbox | Set-CalendarProcessing -AllBookInPolicy $True]#Unnecessary comment
Of course, test the setting on one mailbox to be sure it fixes things before you apply it to all. Run the Get-Mailbox -RecipientTypeDetails RoomMailbox by itself first to be sure you get just what you want and don't go applying that setting to a whole
bunch of other stuff you don't want it applied to.

Tested on one mailbox and it fixed the problem. Thanks Ed!! - that command worked for changing the rest of them.

It seems like this is not working when I send a calendar invite form an external user. Is it possible to make this work for any external use rthat tries to book this room?
