Default Reminders from others

Before the most recent update, we use to be able to place an event on other
users calendar and chose to set a reminder for them or not before sending.
Currently everthing that is being sent gets a default reminder on the
receiving users calendar. Currently there are two of us using the calendar to
schedule six technicians on a daily bases and getting these reminders all the
time have become a pain. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We
have unchecked the default reminders for both users and still the same......
receiver get a default reminder after accepting the event.

What type of email accounts do you use?

Exchange = Exchange server. There is a bug in Exchange where reminders are
added when none was set. I'm trying to figure out if this is your problem or
if its something else.

Dianne, I really appreciate your help on this and think that we may be very
close. The problem is that I told you we were working with 2007 exchange and
I was wrong. We are working with 2010 exchange. Any links, fixes or work
arounds for 2010? Thank you again.
