The Exchange Calendar Update Tool is not as clean as I would like an in my initial testing of over 350 mailboxes left much to be desired. Article 930879 should be used without question and read cover to cover before attempting it. It's also my understanding that the Exchange tool is single threaded and will only process 3-4 mailboxes per minute. Thanks for the blog. Doug Ant,

All our American counterparts are affected by the change in DST, but do we in London need to do anything on our systems? Will there be any effect on Americans sending us appointment notices? Thanks in advance! Dave. Hi,

We are an American based company, although in London we have all our own BES and Exchange servers set to UK time zone. All our American counterparts are affected by the change in DST, but do we in London need to do anything on our systems? Will there be any effect on Americans sending us appointment notices?

Thanks in advance!
Dave.
