Is there any way to auto-decline meeting invites based on rules like for mail?
So we have a huge team and lately I'm constantly getting "Joe Schmuckatelli Dentist Appointment" and stuff like that and I really don't need to know this info....they are either on slack/Lync or they are not. I silently decline that crap because I have enough legit meetings on my calendar.
Is there any way to set up a rule in Outlook for Mac that allows me to silently decline any meetings that match the rules of say, To: #teamname and contain “WFH”, “OOO”, “PTO” etc?

I believe the answer is
(while in mail view, not Calendar view)
In the “Organize” ribbon, select “Rules”->“Create Rule”
“From” “is” #greenhouse
“Subject” Contains ‘PTO’ or ‘WFH’
“Kind” Is ‘meeting request’
“Delete”

I've scoured the internet for a way to do this and it seems the best option is just deleting the email, but that doesn't actually decline the meeting. It will still show as "Tentative" on your calendar since you never actually responded to the meeting request.
Welcome to SuperUser! Your post doesn't appear to address the question in a useful manner. Are you saying that previous posted answer doesn't work? You will find that you will have a better experience if you take moment to take the Stack Overflow tour. If you follow the norms of the Stack Overflow community and approach it with an attitude of helping others too, it will serve you well.
