Default "Ask before sending a response" does not work

Outlook 2003 on Exchange server

I changed my tracking options from "Never send a response" to "Ask before
sending a response" but it won't ask. I've restarted the computer.

Would appreciate suggestions.

According to the setting page you were on when you changed that, the read
receipt options apply only to Internet accounts. The Exchange server controls
read receipt handling for internal messages.

Ah. I see I was hasty in reading that page.

Can you explain why, when accepting meeting requests, I'm not given the
options to Edit the response, Respond, or not respond? Other users do.

I can't answer that. I've never seen it. Do your meeting requests get
accepted automatically, or do you need to click Accept?

I click Accept, but they never get the email.

The problem could be on either end. What type of email account do you use?
What do they use? Is their antispam filter blocking it?

The problem occurs on multiple Outlook 2003 computers to anyone inviting.
Both users are on the same exchange server and our spam filters only filter
from outside. Oddly, I've been using a laptop with Outlook 2007, and it
works fine.

I'm not going to worry about it for now. I don't get that many invitations,
and I'll just make a mental note to email them when the options don't appear.

Thanks to all for suggestions.
