My Outlook invites are adding as 'Required' people that I did not 'invite' to attend. These turn out to be people who may have 'Viewing/Scheduling ' rights on the calendar, which means they would receive automatically the invite as 'Optional' , right? Somehow they are being included in the 'Required' category, which is causing a lot of confusion.:confused: Could this be a Settings issue? Thanks!
 
Did these people set up the meeting on your behalf? If they only have permission to view or create a appointments, they should not be added to all meetings. If they are your delegates, they could be added.

Go to Tools, Options, Delegates - are they listed there and what are their permissions?

If they aren't delegates then something else is causing it - a custom form, something on the server, rules... (the last two would add the names after its sent).
