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

I think that if Microsoft makes a change to remove the option of "Do not send a response". The way I understand how invites work, even in real life, if you do not respond, the requestor has no clue that you are planning on attending. I think that was the intended way Microsoft wanted this to function.
Wouldn't changing the Do Not Send a Response to automatically sending a response, wouldn't that just be Send the Response Now?
Microsoft, please just get rid of the Do Not Send a Response option.

Grant Taylor yes, and as someone who sees this all the time, that is exactly what people expect to happen....but sadly, that's not what happens as we all know. I just keep trying to educate everyone that I work with, which is certainly not a fix, but necessary for now - https://www.lingfordconsulting.com.au/ms-outlook/accepting-outlook-meeting-correctly

The problem was reported to Microsoft in 2014!!!!!
Almost 10 years later, and people are still getting confusing results from this inferior product design. What would it take for MS to fix it?
- Stephen_33Oct 05, 2023Copper ContributorYes but literally everyone expected the meeting to be updated that they are coming or not and the organiser does not get an email. So they need to keep it but update the logic, which is taking years to do so who knows when it’s actually going to happen.
