outlook meeting request / send message to attendees by response st

L

LJ Marinello

In an outlook meeting request – is there a way to reply to attendees based on
their response (accept, tentative, decline)? If not, there should be :)

The scenario is, I want to send an email to all that have replied "accept"
(or any status) to the meeting request. Currently, I need to manually go
into the tracking, see who accepted, and send mail to them.

I would like the Outlook "message to attendees" button to include options to
include "Send message to those accepted", "declined", etc.

This is a feature I would really use for pre-meeting instructions or
post-meeting notes.

I'm pretty sure you can do it in rules, depending on how complex yo
want it to be. As long as you want it to go either to any email tha
comes in with "Accepted" in the title, for example, you should be abl
to do it. I'm not in front of Outlook and I can't see if "send an email
is one of the available actions in the rules wizard. That would be th
only thing that would stop you from setting up a rule that way. Do yo
know how to create a rule? Choose "Rules" under the "Tools" menu ite
and just follow through the wizard.

Sorry if it isn't there. If it isn't, you'd need to create a macro, an
I'm not good enough to tell you how to do that without looking at it
:)

While you can send responses with a rule based on the subject, it sounds
like the question is about sending messages to all of the attendees and not
to those who declined. The New message to attendees options includes
everyone, not just those who accepted. You should be able to uncheck the
decliners before sending the new message, other you need to delete the names
of those who declined.
