This is a easy one. It's a permissions problem. i am running E2k on Win2k Server. Client Side i am running WinXpPro. In Outlook 2k2 i am trying to add multiple mailboxes to my profile. i am successful in doing this however when i try to expand the newly added mailbox is says the operation failed. I'm almost positive this is a permissions problem i just cant find what permissions to grant myself in order to have those rights. I've added myself as a member to enterprise/schema and domain admins still no luck.
Thanks in advance.
 
You must give yourself permission at the mailbox level or select the server that the mailboxes reside on, got into the security setting, and give yourself permissions to everything. I believe you only need to have "send as" and "receive as" permissions though.

Is that new with E2k vs. Exchange 5.5
because when i had a NT domain with Exchange 5.5. i would just add ppl's mailboxes to my account. I know for a fact that i did not give myself any access on a mailbox level. i just added accounts to mine and then in my folder list i would just expand them. Without having to add myself to each and every exchange account with send on and recieve on behalf permissions.
Anything else?
I was thinking i missed a member group to add myself to, something like 'Exchange Admin' group or something
