from VBScript?

Yes. There used to be a component named "ACL COM Component" on MSDN that can
be used from VBScript/JScript. Try to do a search for it on Google since I
don't have the URL handy. Sorry.

Thanks, but unfortunately it only works for Exchange 5.5. I assume that now Exchange is part of active directory that the security structure has changed somewhat.

The security structure for public folders and folder inside your mailbox has
not changed. The only major change with the introduction of Windows AD is
how mailbox permissions are assigned. The code sample I mentioned in my
previous post works flawlessly against Exchange 2000 and 2003.

Cheers Seigfried, I'll give it a go.
