RE: AutoAccept Script
Are the rooms that are not working set up as "Resources" in Outlook and to therefore allow direct booking? When a mailbox is enabled for direct booking through the Outlook client, its free/busy object is modified such that the meeting organizer's Outlook knows to write the event directly into the resource calendar rather than sending it as an invitation. Since the auto-accept script is only watching the inbox for invitations, it won't notice the direct bookings. In ERM we don't completely avoid the possibility of this problem, but when you set a resource to "Managed" within ERM, we do turn off direct booking on that resource as part of the process so that the Outlook clients won't bypass sending the request.
