Remove all calendar delegates

It seems I cannot make my users understand that they should un-tick the
option to send copies to delegates when they delegate permissions on
their calendar. As a result everyone gets meeting-requests from
everyone. To get rid of this problem I'm going to instruct them to use
the Folder List > Calendar > Properties > Permissions instead.

As I do not wish to have everyone remove the current delegates
manually, I'm looking for a (VB-) script to delete all delegates for a
user. Can anyone help me with that?

TIA,
Wouter
 
That should be coded using LDAP or ADSI or some other server side coding
against the AD of your server. That's where the delegate permissions are
stored. They aren't available in the Outlook object model. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/adsi.htm for information on ADSI coding.
 
There will also be a hidden rule item that handles the forwarding of the meeting requests, etc. to the delegate. Should be possible to delete that with CDO 1.21 or Redemption.
