Distribution group & Add to calendar replies
When you create an event, switch off the Response options. Or just send them as .ICS attachments or similar.
Hi Vasil,
The problem is no event is being created.
The "Automatic Processing" option in OWA auto-creates an event based upon it reading text in the body of the message. When the recipient accepts OWA's suggestion, it fires back a new event to the list.
For example - I send an email to the list with the following text:
"Free lunch tomorrow in the auditorium at 12:00PM!"
The recipients Outlook sees that text and offers to add it to their calendar. When the user does this it then fires off a new invite back to the list and everyone who is on it which gets really messy.

RIght. That's the "Suggested Meetings" add-in's doing, you can turn that off at the company level.
Not really a good option as it is helpful, just not in this instance.
That's why I was looking for possibly a null reply-to address for the distribution group so those invites would go nowhere.
