\t\t\t\tA bug in Outlook causes a delegate who has been removed from a shared Calendar to continue to receive Calendar notifications – even though he does not appear on the delegate list or in any Rules & Alerts.<\/p>\n

This is because the rule in invisible – so you cannot see it in Outlook.<\/p>\n

Resolution
\n<\/strong>Note that this deletes all delegates so you will need to add them again. Also note that some say you can delete all delegates and re-add them and the invisible delegate goes away too (which does not help if you have no delegates and the delegate still receives Calendar alerts!<\/p>\n

Instead we need to open the mailbox using\u00a0MFCMAPI<\/a>\u00a0to see the rule.<\/p>\n

Download MFCMAPI here<\/a>\u00a0and extract the file onto a computer that also has Outlook installed (it will use the Outlook profile to logon to Exchange). Note that the 64bit & 32bit versions relate to the Outlook version not the OS. Works with Outlook 2010, 2013 & 2016. Just extract to a temp folder and run from there (it does not need installing)<\/p>\n

After launching MFCMAPI click the\u00a0Session<\/strong>\u00a0menu and choose\u00a0Logon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you are on the computer with the\u00a0mailbox that sends the invites to the invisible delegate then just double click the Mailbox<\/p>\n

If not, after logging on choose\u00a0MDB<\/strong>,\u00a0Open other mailboxes<\/strong>, then\u00a0From GAL<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Choose the suspect mailbox from the GAL, in this case Ana Williams. Click OK at the \u201cCreateStoreEntryID flags\u201d dialog that appears.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Navigate the\u00a0Root Container<\/strong>\u00a0down to\u00a0Top of Information Store<\/strong>\u00a0and then\u00a0Inbox<\/strong>. Right-click Inbox and choose\u00a0Other tables<\/strong>\u00a0and then\u00a0Rules table<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Depending on the number of regular inbox rules the mailbox has you may see more than one entry. To locate the invisible rule that handles email forwarding for delegates look for the rule that has a blank \u201cRule Name<\/strong>\u201c, and has a\u00a0PR_RULE_PROVIDER<\/strong>\u00a0value of \u201cSchedule+ EMS Interface<\/strong>\u201c.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Before proceeding to the next step be aware that this process removes the email forwarding for all delegates on the mailbox. So before you delete it make sure you’ve made a note of the delegates who are supposed to remain on the mailbox, as they will need to be re-added.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Right-click the rule and choose\u00a0Delete<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The final step is to re-add any delegates to the mailbox that are still wanted.<\/p>\n
