Here is what MS built-in help says: Details Product: Exchange ID: 8206 Source: EXCDO Version: 6.5.0000.0 Message: Calendaring agent failed with error code error code while saving appointment. Explanation The 8206 event indicates that the Free/Busy component in Exchange 2000 had a problem accessing Calendaring or Free/Busy information. This event is seen typically when the Exchange IFS Drive (also called M Drive) is being scanned by a file-level scanner. This event has several variations, with the error code in the Description section differentiating each of the variants. The error codes usually are Collaboration Data Objects (CDO) codes referring to bad data, or authentication failures, etc.. You can use the ERROR.EXE tool on the Exchange 2000 CD to get further details on the error. This behavior can occur if a file level virus scanner is scanning the installable file system (IFS) drive (M Drive) of the Exchange 2000 server. This issue can occur if the MSExchangeFBPublish key and/or its sub keys are missing from under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services in the Microsoft Windows registry. User Action Stop any virus scanner from scanning the M drive. To recover lost calendar entries, either restore calendar items from a backup that was made before the calendar items were lost, or manually re-create the calendar items. Restore the correct registry settings on the computer. Please query the Microsoft Knowledgebase for Event ID 8206 for further details. Verify that the service account (local system for a pure Exchange 2000 topology, and the 5.5 service account for mixed topologies) has permissions to delete and retrieve messages in the System Attendant''s mailbox. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Related Knowledge Base articles You can find additional information on this topic in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base articles: * XADM: Calendaring Agent Fails with Error Code 0x80040229 When You Save Appointments When you try to save appointments in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, all or some calendar information may be lost, and the following events may be logged in the event log: Event ID: 8206 Source: EXCDO Description: Calendaring agent failed with... * XADM: Calendar Items Disappear from User's Folders When you use the calendar, you may notice that calendar items have been deleted or that calendar items have disappeared from calendar folders.

We utilize several layers of anti-virus protection outside Exchange, so the configuration for ScanMail has not changed since it was installed (late 2003). It works fine. 3) There are no other errors in the event logs. Please help if you can.
