Calendar

I have a calendar set up in public folders that is used for tracking travel.
The problem is that some items on this calendar are showing up on some users
personal calendars. They were not added to the event as an attendee or any
other way. It does not affect all users though.

There's no relationship between a public calendar and a mailbox calendar,
certainly not without third party stuff. See if you can reproduce the
problem. I suspect users are doing this themselves somehow.

I can reproduce the issue. I sat down at a users computer, one whose
appointments have been showing up on anothers calendar and created an event.
It was on another users calendar and that user was not invited and did not
receive an invite.

In the public calendar? Are you sure?

And this was not a meeting invitation sent from the user's mailbox - but a
regular appointment in the public calendar?
There's just no way for this to happen out of the box. In fact, it's
something people frequently *request* as a feature - but there is nothing
built in to do it.

The user (or me) sets up an appointment on there calendar and invites a
public folder to the event. This gives visibility of these appointments to
the rest of the company. After they send the event, it is on their calendar,
the public folder, and shows up on some but not all individual user calendars.
