How do I stop Outlook from automatically adding meetings to my ca.

[Guest]

Soon after a meeting request arrives in your Inbox, Outlook automatically
adds the meeting to your calendar and marks it as tentative.

How do I turn this feature off?

This is the way it's supposed to work, to avoid time conflicts. The proposed
meeting time is automatically inserted in your calendar, and set as
tentative, so you won't inadvertently schedule another conflicting meeting
before you accept (or decline) the meeting request. So I don't think you can
turn this feature off.

Thank you for your response homeLAN, after doing some more research I came to
the conclusion that you are right, you can not turn this feature off.

It's unfortunate that this doesn't work from the server side. You can't avoid
conflicts unless you have Outlook open!
