MicrosoftAccept & Do Not Send a Response
What's the status of this change to allow for tracking the response if the user selects "Accept Do Not Send a response"?
Thank you - Jack
Julia Foran this would concern me. Since all invitation stuff works by sending emails (with specific headers), I would expect that “don’t send response” would not send a response.
I don’t see the point in being recorded as an attendee, hence the do not send response press. I use this button to block my calendar and at a later moment decide whether or not I’m joining.
- Interesting Stephan. If you don't accept a response, the invite still stands in your Calendar though doesn't it? Just marked as tentative, because you have not accepted or taken any action with the invite. Closer to the date you can Accept or Decline. I think the "Accept & Do Not Send a Response" is just not required as it stands.
- Yes that is true, but I don't like the tentative status. I was just expressing my concern about this feature that might get removed. Or will it always be an option to just not send a response?
We have some meetings where one of three users is required and the rest might join anyway. Then I like the meeting to be on my calendar as busy but the organizer might not have a reaponse from me.Stephan- if you don't want to let someone know you are not going to the meeting (that's a bit strange in itself as communication is key to everything) then just don't accept it and it will stay as tentative in your calendar. If someone was looking at your calendar it is correct as you don't want to let anyone know you are going so tentative implies you may or may not go.
