3. In the coming responses status list, check the boxes before all the Accepted attendees' names, then uncheck all the boxes before the other attendees.

Note: The check box for the "Meeting Organizer" won’t be cleared.

4. Go ahead and click "Contact Attendees" > "New E-mail to Attendees" on the "Meeting" tab.

Note: In Outlook 2007, you can click "Message to Attendees" > "New Message to Attendees" on the "Meeting" tab.

Then a new message is created with the meeting accepted attendees (except for the meeting organizer) added in the "To" field. Please compose the email and send it.

Send email to all accepted attendees with Excel’s Filter function

If there are a number of attendees' responses you have got, it will be quite onerous to check each accepted attendee one by one. Therefore, the other method will copy all attendees’ Response status from Microsoft Outlook 2010 and 2013, and filter accepted attendees in Microsoft Excel, at last copy and paste all accepted attendees into a new email message. The following are detailed steps:

1. Shift to the Calendar view, and open the specified meeting that you will send email to its accepted attendees.

2. In the opened "Meeting" window, click the "Tracking" > "Copy Status to Clipboard" on the "Meeting" tab. See screenshot:
