In Outlook 2007, when in Calendar view, there's a category (group) of calendars on the left hand bar titled "People's Calendars".

We're migrating from a system where all employees have access to read and write to all other employees' calendars (via a 3rd party Web Calendar). Is it possible, from an admin level, to auto-populate this People's Calendars category in everyone's Outlook with all the employees in the company, and grant everyone read / write access to everyone else's calendars?

(Running Exchange 2010)

Thanks,

Duncan
