Meeting requests in outlook with one ext. Mailaddress will get sended as mail and not as appointment

I had again a Exchange 2007 Server with the above issue. As usual I wanted to exclude 3rd Party Software (f.e. GFI Mailsecurity). And this also solved the issue. Afterwards we found this information: http://kbase.gfi.com/showarticle.asp?id=KBID003560
This issue occurs when GFI MailEssentials is installed on Microsoft Exchange 2007. GFI MailEssentials adds a disclaimer to outbound Microsoft Outlook appointment and meeting requests. The disclaimer modifies the notification in such a way that makes it unreadable in Microsoft Outlook.
Solution:
The following procedure explains how to disable GFI MailEssentials from adding disclaimers on responses to Microsoft Outlook appointment and meeting requests:
Open the following file using a text editor such as notepad:
<GFI\MailEssentials\Data\product.config>
Add the following line as the last key on the line before the closing </appSettings> tag.
<add key="DisableOLMeetingDisclaimer" value="1"/>
Restart the Microsoft Exchange Transport Service from the Services console
