Public folders working as ressources in Outlook2003

[ineo_fr]

Hi all,

Before starting: Our is environment is compsoed of one Exch 2003 Server and
our mail clients are Outlook 2003.

I've created some public folders for cars and meeting rooms in my company
(calendars). these ressources are mail enabled.

My problem is the following:
if a user book one of the car for a meeting in his own calendar, adding it as
"ressource" in the meeting, the ressource doesn't reply automatically and
other people can book it during the same period.

I don't realy know how to tranform a public folder into a real ressource? Is
it
possible?
If not, what is the best way to create a ressource for meeting room, cars .. ?

Any tips?
Thanks in advance

The best method I have found is creating a separate mailbox for each
resource - see this page for details.
