Something puzzles me; From within Outlook 2003 you can set permissions on
your mailbox and the folders in your mailbox.
If you only set permissions on the folder itself, i.e. 'Calendar', that
folder can be opened (by the one you gave the permissions to) via
File|Open|Other Users Folder|Folder name.
If you want users to have the ability to add that particular folder to
their folder list, you should give the 'Folder Visible' right on the
mailbox itself and the rights to the folder, i.e. Calendar itself of
course. Setting the Folder Visible right would create some kind of pass
through to other folders where rights were set to.
I have now set the following.
*Mailbox (Outlook Today)
Default
None with Folder Visible checkbox ticked
*Calendar
Default

For some reason this is not working for some users. Users can add the
mailboxes in question to their folder list, they see the Mailbox
(Outlook Today) item, but they do not see the Calendar beneath it. If
they click on that mailbox item, they do not get an error but they do
see in the right pane: there are no folders to display in this view.
Cheers,

PS: After waiting for 24 hours and restarting the Information Store service
on our Exchange server, it now works for most of our users but not for all
of them. Does anybody know when these Mapi permissions actually get applied?
Does Cached mode make any difference?
