Updated Calendar events problems

[Brett_x]

I haven't been able to find this problem in other posts:

Entourage 2004, Exchange 2003. Mixture of PC's and Macs (about 150
Macs, 3500pc's). The issue seems to only happen to the Macs which are
running OS 10.3.8 with Open Directory server 10.4.2.
Accepting an invitation to a calendar event seems to work fine. If
there is an update to that event, it doesn't work right:
Before SP2, sometimes the "Updated: " invite would have the same day
and time as the original meeting, and therefore, even if the user
accepts the update, it won't reflect any change in the user's calendar.
I decided to wait for SP2 to see if it was resolved.
Since SP2: It seems now the problem is that the OLD event doesn't get
deleted, causing multiple instances of the same meeting. Obviously,
this is a problem. I almost drove out of town for a meeting that was
updated from yesterday to next week.
I have checked my time zone on my computer and in Entourage- they do
match.

The only workaround that I have found is to accept any updated meeting
invitations via Outlook Web Access. This correctly updates the meeting
and deletes the old one. This also worked fine before SP2. I don't
want to tell 150 people that they have to use OWA to accept calendar
events. Please help.

Yes, this does happen in 10.4.2 (I am one of few people here testing
10.4).
As far as updating is concerned... I did a test with adding an agenda
and that seemed to update fine. (It didn't add another meeting with the
agenda).
It does seem to be just with a date/time change. For some reason, it
doesn't delete the original meeting.
TIA for your help.
