What version of Exchange server? How often do you lose permissions? Is
anyone else having this problem?
The only way you should lose permissions is if the admin is running
something to reset the defaults.

where can i find what version of Exchange server? All i see is Microsoft
Exchange Server.
I came in this morning and had access to their calendar. then again after a
couple of hours, i lost view access. I was in the middle of writing an email,
then my outlook 2007 (email and calendar) had to close due to an error or
something. I opened my outlook, checked to see if i had access to view my
co-worker's calendar, but none now. i think their calendar caused my email
to crash, is that possible?
not sure if anyone else is having the same problems, i called our IT folks
and they didn't hear anything. I know people are having major problems though
with their calendars...meetings diappearing, etc.

Diane I am also seeing this at a new Office 2007 site. Odd. Any ideas on how
to find the cause?

Are the permissions actually being lost or is the calendar just disappearing
from the navigation pane?

If you are just losing the calendar in outlook and need to re-add it using
the open other user's folder command, then the navigation pane file is
corrupt. Restart outlook using the /resetnavpane switch. You'll lose all
customizations in the navigation pane when you do this.

It's doubtful their calendar caused the crash, unless you were viewing it or
working with appointments in it at the time.

Permissions are actually being lost. I have to keep requesting to the other
person to be added to have view access.

The calendar must have been open then in the background when I was using my
email.
