Outlook 2000: Moving Public Folders and it's permissioning effect

Hi All,

In Outlook 2000, what is the permissioning effect of right clicking
on
a public folder, selecting 'move' and then say, dumping it in a
folder
higher up/lower down....just plain somewhere else! Does the folder
you're moving keep the permissions it had before you uprooted it or
does it take on the permissions of its new parent? Does the answer
vary/are there any exceptions to this rule (like in NTFS
permissioning
whereby the answer depends on if you're moving data to a different
volume of not etc?)


Basically, I've been asked to merge two Exchange Public Folders,
we'll
say folder A and folder B into a new folder called C BUT keep the
folder permissioning as it was. Is it as simple as creating the new
folder C and then just moving all the old A and B folders into it and
as a nice bonus, all permissions remain the same?


Any help gratefully appreciated, especially any articles or tutuorial
I can read to help myself :)


Thanks :)
