FIX: Cannot dismiss reminders in Outlook
Why am I getting someone else’s Outlook calendar notifications?
This problem occurs when you are using Outlook desktop client and Exchange and the person (say a co-worker) who has shared his/her calendar with you has set you as delegate. If the Delegate receives copies of meeting-related messages sent to me option is checked under Delegate Permissions, you will receive an email whenever he/she accepts meeting invitation. So, you should ask the person to uncheck that option and update the delegate setting.
