Thanks Michael, done that (had to do it via the 2003 ESM as the 2010 one doesn't appear to let you specify replication priority on a per-folder basis?).
So I'll wait it out and see what happens - yesterday it seems changes did make it through, they just took quite a while. Do you know if there is anything unique about the "Administrator" account that gets mail enabled when Exchange 2010 is installed? I ask as I went into it via OWA and created an appointment yesterday, yet this morning it still just shows hatched bars if I try and arrange a meeting. What I'm never quite clear on is how much of the free/busy info that's shown is dependant on the client going into Outlook every so often? From: Michael B.

A test user on the 2010 box can schedule a meeting and see free/busy info for a user on either the 2010 box or the 2003 server. A user on the 2003 server can see some free/busy info for a user on the 2010 box but there seems to be a lot of lag i.e. an appointment I put in as a 2010 user half an hour back still hasn't shown up when scheduling a meeting as a user on the 2003 box. I've ensured that both the 2003 and 2010 servers are on the replica list for the 2003 Administrative Group and the newly created 2010 Administrative Group. Not sure whether I'm actually having issues or just a lack of understanding/patience - more of the latter I suspect. Most of the migration guides seem to focus on replicating free/busy from the 2003 server to the 2010 server, few seem to mention what happens the other way around for users on 2003 to see the free/busy status of users on 2010.
