Yeah, I have the same problem in lots of places. I go chasing them. I
pestered one beggar of an engineer he eventually started organising the
documentation meetings. That was a major victory...
The macro. A challenge but maybe a bit too much of a challenge.
Warren. Would love to know how it is done.

in Outlook
So you have a group of people who have established that they don't
reliably respond to e-mail, and you're going to fix the problem by
sending them another e-mail...
Phone or visit each person and ask them. Then send an e-mail confirming
the time and place of the meeting and listing the people who've said
they're coming.
On the day of the session, phone or visit everyone who said they'd come
to the session and confirm that they still intend to be there.
I guarantee this will take less time and be more successful than
delegating it to your Sent Items folders to negotiate commitments with
their Inbox.
Stuart
