I setup a public folder to store an archive of e-mail
messages. The client has over 100 folders in Outlook
Express which I just imported into Outlook 2002. I then
moved all the folders to the public folder, which by the
way was a very tedious task as I had to do it one at a
time. The problem now is that nobody else can see these
folders. The default permissions on all 100 subfolders
are not set for Read. Is there a way I can change this
setting on all folders at once, or does it have to be one
at a time?

Thanks,
Don

Tried both knowledge base articles referenced below, still
no luck. No matter what I do I cannot the the "Propagate
these properties to all subfolders" option to appear. I
am running Exchange 2000, sp3, mixed mode. Clients are
Windows XP with Outlook 2002.

Thanks,
Don

Doh!!! That KB article was for Exchange 5.5. Let's try this one:
