Internet free/busy address for contacts in subfolder

T

Thomas Upton

Sorry for the cross-post, but this relates to both calendar and
contacts, so I'm re-posting it in the top-level Outlook group.

It seems as though when a contact is in a subfolder (i.e. not in
"Contacts"),
their Internet free/busy address is not loaded or even accessed during
meeting scheduling.

To reproduce:

* Create a contact in the top Contacts folder.
* Put a known and working Internet free/busy address in the
appropriate field.
* Verify that this contact's free/busy information appears while
scheduling
an event that this contact is attending
* Move the contact to a subfolder (created by right-clicking Contacts
and
selecting "New Folder...")
* Create a new event and add the contact from the subfolder to the
attendee
list.

Expected results:
The free/busy information of the contact in the subfolder is loaded
into the
scheduling grid.

Actual results:
No free/busy information is loaded.

It seems as though the URL is never being accessed for contacts that
are not
in the root "Contacts" folder. Is there some reason for this? If so,
is there
a way around this behavior?
