Creating a Meeting

A meeting is a calendar event that involves other people.

Follow these directions to create a meeting:

  1. From the day or week calendar view, click on a start time and drag your mouse to the end time. Let go of the mouse button. The QuickAdd Appointment dialog box will be displayed.
  2. Click the More Details button.

    Note: You can also click on the New button to open the Appointment Details screen.

  3. The Appointment Details screen is displayed. Fill in the Subject and Location.
  4. To invite people, type their name in the Attendees field.

    Note: EagleMail searches the Global Address List (GAL) for name matches. See Viewing Free/Busy Schedules and Scheduling Resources for more information.
  5. In the text box at the bottom type any notes you want the attendees to see in their email notification.

  6. Click the Save button on the toolbar.

    Note: Unless you uncheck Request Responses under the Attendees field, invitees will be sent a meeting request email message and the meeting is displayed on the calendar of the organizer and all invitees. Any time the meeting details are changed, attendees are automatically notified of the change, via email. You can uncheck Send Notification Mail on the Appointment Details page under the Attendees field so attendees do not receive an email message notifying them of changes to the meeting details.
