I have several meetings during the day and I like to be able to open my calendar and see what is left at a glance so I delete the meetings that I have already completed. If I do this close enough to the meeting time I am asked if I want to notify the creator. If I do this after the meeting has started Outlook automatically sends a notice to the creator that I have declined the meeting. I am only deleting the one instance so it is still in my calendar for the next time, however that creates an email that others must read/delete.

I need to be able to remove single occurrences of meetings without automatically sending a notice that I am deleting the entry.

NOTE: I am using Outlook 2007, I did not see anything in the Advanced Email Options.

NOTE 2: I have seen this happen with Lotus notes as well (Like anyone actually uses that).

NOTE 3: There is not a sent message created, only the creator of the calendar event will see the message.
