Details

A BlackBerry device user receives a meeting request and counter-proposes a new date or time for the meeting using IBM Lotus Notes. The meeting organizer is unable to accept or decline the counter-proposal on the BlackBerry device and must accept or decline the counter-proposal using the IBM Lotus Notes client.

This behavior is by design.

From a Blakcberry, Is it possible to propose a new time for a meeting you're not the chair for?

e.g. If Fred send me a meeting request (which I accept), if I edit the meeting request, I can change the time manually, but it doesn't send Fred a "propose a new time".

But if I send Fred a meeting request (which he accepts), if i edit the meeting request & change the time manually, it asks if I Wish To Inform Attendees. (since I'm the chair)


The only work around I can see is the "email attendee's" & ask them/the chair to propose a new time.

At this stage I don't believe there is any other work around except for you proposed solution (or use the desktop PC of course). Once BES 4.1 SP6 and the 2.4 firmware are released I will retest this feature.
