Meeting option: who can bypass lobby
"The text in brackets should not be there for that option - the setting is nothing to do with preventing forwarding."
But that is what that option does. But interesting to hear that future version brings changes to that. I do have as well version: 16.0.14931.20648.

Not for me, I'm able to forward the invite using the Teams client or Outlook even when I select that option. What that text in brackets is trying to say is that people who receive the meeting invite as a forward rather than direct from the organiser will not be able to by-pass the lobby. The use of wording is poor and makes it seem like it prevents forwarding of the invite - it doesn't, it simply prevents non-original recipients by-passing the lobby.
In my opinion it should just say "People I invite" (as I think that's clear enough), and forwarding should not be affected by ANY setting in this drop down. The ability to turn off forwarding is performed in the 'Meeting Response' options in a separate area, alongside Request Responses and Allow Proposing of New Times.
I think we can agree they've made a small mess out of it though 🙂

Okay, then this is even more strange, as if I select it, the "forward" is gone on Teams client, but not on Outlook.

This would be nice statement for starting weekend 😄
