Exchange 2007 Room Mailbox and Calendar Issue

Question
-
Here is the scenario
Exchange 2007 SP3 MBX Servers
Exchange 2007 CAS/HUB SP2 (I know this is not supported but it is running at my client ) and they don't want to fix it now.
So when a user select a room mailbox and reserve via office outlook 2007/2010 (configured to use TCP/IP on fast internet) IT WORKS and GETS SCHEDULED.
When a user with Office Outlook 2007/2010/OWA is configured to use HTTPS/RPC - The same room mailbox replies that your room is reserved Tentatively.
Why?

Hi,
Set the AddNewRequestsTentatively parameter to $true to have the Calendar Attendant put new calendar items tentatively on the calendar. If the AddNewRequestsTentatively parameter is set to $false, only existing calendar items are updated by the Calendar Attendant.
So, If you don't want to make new calendar items tentative on your calendar, you can set the parameter as $false.
