Hi,

I struggling a bit with public folders and permissions in Exchange
2003. I would like to create a public folder to which mail messages
can be send. This folder should not be public to everyone though, but
to a certain group of users. Per default a public folder has
permissions set for "Standard", "Anonymous" and "Administrator". I
tried removing all and adding only the users who I would like to give
access to the permissions list with contributer access. This worked as
only those users can now access the folder. But mailing messages to
the folder is not working anymore. I'm wondering if I need to add some
sort of other account to the permissions list for this to work, as I
haven't been able to quite figure out how permissions on public
folders work.

Can someone guide me towards an answer?

Kind regards,

Gershon Janssen

Have you mail-enabled the folder in Exchange System Manager?
