Default Calendars as a Resource in Outlook Appointments

By following the directions on slipstick.com under the topic of Outlook 2000
and later (direct booking) (
http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/skedresource.htm ) I now have the calendar
create, autoaccepting requests and working. My problem is that I cannot
figure out how to set it to NOT accept mail as suggested in this paragraph:

quote
TIP: Using your Exchange Server administration tool, set the mailbox to not
accept messages from anyone. (A distribution list or security group is good
for this.) That way, if users forget and add the resource as a required or
optional attendee, the request will bounce back to them from the resource
mailbox.
/quote

I cannot seem to find the section(s) suggested. The couple that I tried did
not prevent mail from being delivered and there was an unacknowledged request
in the mailbox. This is something we do not want.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Will

Will,

There is a Microsoft Knowldgebase Article on how to setup the resources so
they don't get any incoming mail inviting them. I have mine setup that way,
I'll try to remember what the article pointed out and post it here...
something about turning off the default reminders also...
