27.4 Inviting Others or Delegating and Deleting Calendar Items

Use Invite to invite other people to a scheduled item. Use Delegate and delete to reassign a scheduled item to someone else and delete it from your calendar. The sender can determine who you invited or delegated the item to by looking at the item’s properties.

When the message body, subject line, or To list of an appointment is modified by the original sender, all recipients, including invited or delegated recipients, receive the modifications.

When the time or place of an appointment is modified by the original sender, the appointment is retracted from all recipients; however, it is re-sent only to the original recipients. In this case, the appointment must then be re-delegated.
