Then actions are: Forward to: UserA.
2. UserA requests a meeting with UserB
3. UserB accepts meeting
4. UserA deletes meeting and selects to delete the rule from the recipients
folders.
5. UserB's rule will forward a copy of the 'Meeting Cancelled' notification to
UserA.

updated.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 4.
