meeting times email time error
 

I have my PC configured for British Summer Time, i.e. GMT+1 (using GMT
as base time with "automatically adjust clock for daylight savings"
selected), when I send out a meeting schedule from Outlook, it puts a 1
hour error in the meeting time email.

E.g. I schedule a meeting from 1200 to 1300 BST/GMT+1 (i.e. 1100 to 1200
GMT), the email Outlook sends to participants states the meeting time as
being 1200 to 1300 GMT, i.e. one hour later than scheduled. This causes
no end of problem setting up multinational conf. calls.

Anyone suggest a fix?

Here's an example from the email sent from Outlook for a 1200-1300
BST/GMT+1 scheduled meeting:

DESCRIPTION:When: 04 May 2006 12:00-13:00 (GMT) Greenwich Mean Time

Do you have your Outlook Calendar time settings set the same way?

As far as I'm aware . . . .



Looking a bit further it may be an Exchange issue.

Using Outlook alone meeting emails start:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 10.0 MIMEDIR//EN
VERSION:2.0
:

Whereas Exchange meeting emails start:

When: 04 May 2006 15:30-16:30 (GMT) Greenwich Mean Time : Dublin,
Edinburgh, Lisbon, London.
Whe Room 1

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
METHOD:REQUEST
PRODID:Microsoft CDO for Microsoft Exchange

With the Exchange generated message the part preceding BEGIN: gets
displayed as the email body, which is what has the wrong time.

That's OK, thanks for the reply, AFAICS it looks to be a bug in
Exchange.
