Sharing Calendar

M

Mark Wesker

Just following up on the problems reported below, regarding Open Other User
Folder. Entourage is finding the user whose calendar you are trying to
open, but not finding the mailbox, despite all permissions being set
correctly by those users with their Outlook clients. As I mentioned below,
I got it to work for one user in our company, but not for anyone else, yet
all the permissions/settings are identical.



So I am trying to share calendars and contacts which was the most
important part of this update for us...

First I enable permissions on the calendar and contacts of the person I
want to share with.
Then I goto File > Open Other User's Folder

The window pops up and I add the email address username
(firstname_lastname) in the "User" field of the "Open Other User"
dialog window.

I get an error back every time "The user's folder could not be found.
Enourage could not find a mailbox for the user Firstname Lastname."

So Entourage sees the user, as it changes the user's login info into
their actual name on the account. And I can add the user that
Entourage says doesnt exist to my calendar and change the user's
permissions to access my calendar without any errors.

So basically Entourage is telling me user's mailboxes don't exist, yet
Entourage obviously sees the users.

We are running on a hosted Exchange 2003 server. Everyone we are
testing with are using Entourage 2004 SP2.

Any help is appreciated.

Do you have folder visible on the permissions for the mailbox (Inbox)? What
happens when you ³Add User² and try to add them via the Advanced tab?

Thanks,

I have the same exact problem, and folder visible is selected on the
permissions for the Mailbox ­ User Name and the Inbox, all with reviewer
privileges (and of course Calendar). Here¹s a wrinkle though. I was able to
get calendar sharing to work with one user and his configuration is identical
to the others whose calendars I am trying to access. He also works as a
delegate, but no other user works as a delegate, i.e., the same message of
³Entourage could not find a mailbox for the user [last name, first name].
That same message appears whether trying to share a calendar or add a
delegate. Also, of interest is that in the delegate scenario, like the one
described above, the user is found during the selection process and shows up
in the folder view, only the actual folder, i.e., calendar does not show up.
Very strange.
