Office 365 Shared Calendar Meetings inviting all Members when edited
Julia Foran Thanks, Julia.
I've just tried to access the Shared Mailbox via 'Open another mailbox' and can't access it. Is this what you meant?
When accessing the calendar via normal Outlook web (calendar > groups) it still creates the issue.
Kotus-Tech Thanks for sharing your feedback. In Outlook for Windows client, when a meeting is created from an Outlook Group, it is by design to add the Group by default to the recipients (since its created on the Group mailbox/folder). When organizer removes the Group from the To line, Group members do not receive an invite in their inbox. However, the meeting is still on the Group calendar (for all members to view).Hope this helps clarify the scenario.

Sri Ramya Mallipudi Hi - that doesn't clarify anything I'm afraid. As in my original post, when removing the Group from the required field, it doesn't send invites to the entire group however when any amendments are made, the entire group is added and it isn't possible to remove it.
Microsoft support have completely chinned me off and not responded to me. Unfortunately I was expected to get this fixed by tomorrow so I'm probably going to have to delete the Group and start again.

Kotus-Tech hi, just an update that I am looking into this. I am not seeing the group being added to the To line upon edits on the recent Outlook for Windows versions. I am now looking at the older versions to confirm if there might be a bug in older versions. I will get back to you soon on this.

Sri Ramya MallipudiThank you very much. We are still experiencing the issue, only with this one mailbox.
