Can't see public folders

[Steve]

Hi,

I have Outlook 2007 connected to Ex2003 and I can't see the public folders.
If I use OWA I can see the folders.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Steve

Are you in your office when you can't see the PF or are you remote? What
does your Exchange Admin have to say?

Two answers, depending...

Are they disappearing from the "Favorites"?
or
Are you unable to see Public Folders at all?

HI Milly,

I am connecting to the server remotely by using PC Anywhere. I haven't
tried it right at the computer. Remember though, I can see the public
folders if I remotely use PCA and then use OWA.

I am the Exchange admin. I'm not sure if I'm missing a setting or ???



Thanks

Are you in the mail or folder list view? Ctrl+6 - can you see them now?

You are probably using the MAIL view. Try selecting the FOLDER
LIST view. This will show ALL of your folders in the left view pane.

I found a great site (with Pictures) at the following site. Just click the
