Yup, I've just looked on a Colleagues machine running Outlook 2010 (I'm still on 2007). Click the "Rooms" button and choose which rooms you want to be checking. Choose all of them if you want - remember to add them to the Rooms ->> field. Then Outlook will go away and check the room's availability and display available rooms in the box.

It shows a small calendar, a box that says "Choose an available room" below that, and "Suggested times" below that. The little "Choose an available room" window always shows "None" as the only option, despite the fact that we have more than once conference room set up as a resource mailbox, with nothing on their calendars. Shouldn't this little pane be showing those rooms for the user to pick?

I've set up a couple of "room" resource mailboxes representing our conference rooms. How do I make these appear in Outlook's Meeting Suggestion pane? I gather it's supposed to show rooms that have nothing on their calendars for the proposed date/time, but all mine ever says is "None".
