email address on public folders

[Pierre Bru]

hi,

[all "quoted" menu are translated from french]

all my public folders currently have an email address (X400+SMTP). I
want to desactivate this. but if I right-click on a folder in the
Exchange Manager, All the tasks, I have "activate email". if I select
it, I get the error message "email already activated" (c1038a5b) :/

where am I wrong ?

TIA,
Pierre.

You should be able to right click on the folder and select "Mail
Disable"
If you wait a few minutes and then go back into the properties of the
folder you should see that the email addresses tab has gone away.

my problem is that I do not have "mail disable", neither in the right
click menu not in the "all task" submenu. all I get is "mail enable"... :(

Hi,

I would have started a new post for this question, internet explorer gave me
an error so I figured I would ask with a reply to this post.

Here goes.... I am running Exchange 2003 and have always been able to
enable/disable public folders. (We used public folders when we were
transitioning to a new email format. Recently, and here is the snag we
build a second exchange server which will replace our current server, not
sure if bringing this other server on line caused this problem or not, I have
set disable on some public folders - forced replication and still nothing
effects a change... Does anyone have any ideas... I saw Ace's comments about
renaming the public folder, is there any other work arounds.

Thanks

Hi,
have a look on: http://www.lucatec.de/mask
This could be a nice solution for you. It is a small utility which automates
certain routine tasks if you're
working with a Microsoft Exchange Server and have set up public eMail
accounts for individual departments, branches or tasks of your organization

Thanks, but the problem I am having is trying to disable mail on public
folders. I make the change through system manager and the folder still
remains mail enabled. I have even tried to remove the smtp link. I used to
be able to do this. Does anyone know why this no longer works?
