There's a setting here that may help: Tools menu Options Calendar
Resource scheduling. There are options for automatically accepting things
there.

Just took over management of a small peer-to-peer network today. Outlook
2k3 on Win XP SP2, POPping e-mail from ISP mail server. Client has a
couple of workers who make appointments for their sales people to visit
customers. They make the appointment in their local calendars and Invite
Attendees, who are contained in a local Contacts distribution list. These
invites are then sent and POPped down to the other workers who need to see
these appointments in their calendars, too. They have a rule configured
which moves these invites to an "appointments received" folder where they
can accept them and then the appointments also appear in their calendars.
My client swears that they used to get these appointments directly into
their calendars without having to accept the invitation except where there
was already an existing appointment at that time. In this case, the invite
stayed in the "appoinments received" folder for resolution. I can't see
how to accomplish this trick or even if it is possible.
Can someone please lend me a hand with this?
