Public Folder Owner can't create subfolders
Jeremy Bachmann
2000. That user has full owner rights, including the right to create
subfolders. Yet, when that user attempt to create a subfolder to that
folder from inside of Outlook 2000, the message box says she doesn't
have sufficient permissions.
I've never seen this one before. Any ideas? Is there some security
setting on the Exchange Admin that I'm overlooking?

public folder replication's not working? the user's connected to a
copy of the folder to which the permission hasn't been replicated?
are you looking at the permissions from that user's outlook session or
from the admin program? are ther multiple replicas of the file?

>I have this same exact problem....and I only have 2 instances of the PF. One on a 5.5 server and one on a E2K server yet they seem to be in sink. If I view the folders from E5.5 the permissions look the same. The only way I am able to create public folders is via the ESM....any ideas?
and you verified that the permissions are correct when viewed from
that user's outlook client?
if they're in sync, remove one of the replicas and try again. unless
you're running outlook 2003 i don't think you can tell which pf server
you're connected to.
if that works, put the other replica back and wait for the contents to
replicate. then remove the other replica and try again.
if that works, return to both replicas. if that *still* works then you
_had_ a problem that just disappeared. :)
otherwise you've discovered which server had the defective replica.

them the permissions needed to create a subfolder,
You may have the ability to create subfolders restricted in the permissions
of the Public Folder tree or even at the Organization level.
Double-check the info in the following article:
313866 You Cannot Create a New Public Folder in Exchange 2000 Server or in
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=313866
To avoid users having the ability to create top-level folders, make sure
the following article has been followed:
328808 HOW TO: Remove User Permission from the Create Top-Level Public
Folder
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=328808
The combination of those articles should take care of it...

I have a situation similar to this. Even though I am a Owner of a Public
Folder, I can only add users to a Public Folder via Outlook 2002. When I
try to modify permissions, the user and the permissions are greyed out. At
one time, we were able to do this. Through System Mgr, I can modify the
Client Permisions of a Public Folder just like I used to in Outlook.
A couple of weeks ago, a consultant upgraded AD 2003 to native-mode. We
noticed the change in Public Folder permissions since the change to AD. Did
the upgrade to native-mode cause this behavior?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Ron K.

permissions are stored as part of the folder hierarchy itself within the
Public Folder store.
Are you able to create new folders through Outlook?
