Caution
Create a dedicated Polycom Conferencing mailbox that’s used specifically and
exclusively for the purpose of receiving Polycom Conferencing meeting invitations.
This is important because the Polycom DMA system will delete all messages from
the Inbox when it checks this mailbox for meeting invitations.
