Problem sharing calendar

J

Joe

I have a user who shares two Outlook calendars she's created (not her main
calendar) with her group. It's been working fine for her and her people for
a long time and contiues to for all except for one new person. The new
person is set up with the same permissions as everyone esle, and her client
is set to open the other users mailbox, but it just doesn't work. Any ideas?

Hi Diane,
Thanks for your reply. Sometime she gets a message saying "cannot
expand the folder". Other times she gets a message that says something else
that I can't recall, unfortunately. Further, sometimes just nothing happens.
I've tried this on several different computers for this user, all with the
same result. Both are using MSO '03 SP3

I'd start with the /cleanviews switch.

Hi Diane,
I hope my reply isn't too far back in the list for you to see. I've
tried the cleanview switch but that had no effect. Do you have any other
suggestions? I've noticed several others have posted recently with this same
issue.

Thanks again.

Cleanviews was basically a shot in the dark - it fixes similar problems but
I wasn't so sure from the description that it was the cause of this but
since you said you checked permissions...

Triple check the permissions to insure the user has the correct permissions
on the mailbox and calendar folders. If the error occurs when she tries to
open the mailbox, it would be wrong permissions on the mailbox. See
