I want to send out meeting requests to people, which I am able to do.
However, I want to know who is going to attend and who has declined, but I do
not want to see what each person's response is as they accept/decline. Unless
they have a comment to add, I wish for no email response. When it is time for
my meeting I can just see who accepted it from the tracking menu. I know this
is how Lotus Notes works and I am not a fan of LN, so please tell me Outlook
can do this too.
 
For Outlook to "tally" the accept/declines you will need to receive the
response. This response needs to be either opened by you, or "auto
processed"
by outlook. This can be setup in the TOOLS | OPTIONS.

Doesn't This also auto process requests to me? I only want to auto process
replies from requests I send for meetings, not for meetings others want me to
attend.

Thanks

There is not a way to do what you wish with Outlook (that I am aware of).

However, I would suggest that it would be better for you to have a separate
account created for this purpose. This would be called a resource account
and
could be named something like "Meeting Attender"...

If you admin set up an account then it could be set up to "autoprocess" the
responses. You could still make meetings with it, and if you were to leave
the company the next guy that takes your place would be able to continue
to keep the function going. You could even set it up to share with others so
that if you were not available to make a meeting for others, the other
person
could.

This also keeps your calendar clean for only your own personal meetings.

If you want more detailed information to share with your exchange admin,
I could send you some.

We use this at my place of work (Over 10,000 clients) and it works quite
well.
