Default Outlook should not alter scheduled times according to time zones

When an meeting invitation is sent from one time zone to another (New York to
London) the recepient in London accepts the invitation in their local time
zone rather than the time orginally set. Therefore, an invitation to a New
York meeting next week at 10:00 am shows up to the invited guest as a 3:00 pm
meeting.

Outlook users do not adjust their computers to a new time zone because all
their meetings are rescheduled to funny and irrelant times.

When a meeting is scheduled for a specific time (e.g. 10 am), it is always
going to be 10:00 am whether it is in Seattle, London, Tokyo or Sydney...not
10:00 in New York and 4:00 pm whereever else. 95% of people using Outlook
are scheduling meetings for their own calendars, not for other people in
other time zones. I could see the application for a conference call in New
York at 10:00 showing up as a 3pm call in London...but that is rarely used.

Please fix this.
