How to receive meeting responses for meetings scheduled within a channel?
mike_gi When you add a channel to a scheduled meeting the replies goes to the mailbox for the Office 365 associated with that Team that the channel belongs to. So unfortunately you will not see those answers so easy.
To get the option to suggest another time for the channel meeting an user have to first add the event to their calendar in Teams from the channel, then open Outlook and suggest a new time from there.
I didn't see any uservoice about this, but there is an uservoice suggesting that propose new time should be added in Teams calendar.
LinusCansby I appreciate the response; unfortunately, it seems that when a attendee suggests a new time in Outlook for that meeting, their response goes to the 365 mailbox, so the Organizer (in this instance, myself) never sees the proposal for a new meeting time. Hopefully, there is coordination between the Outlook propose new time and the Teams propose new time features.

mike_gi This has been a very frustrating point. If we want to use channels as breakout rooms the easiest invite is from the team channel so folks are added to the team but you lose all responses accept accept or decline. Any easy fix i could convey to my org?
JustinWeintraub Unfortunately, I don't work for Microsoft, I just happened to notice the issue just as you did. It is possible this has been addressed, but I haven't revisited it in months. The only work-around I've come up with is to make sure everyone knows that responses to the meeting invite will not be seen, so any replies, such as suggestions for new meeting times, are best sent via email.
