Setting up Delegates for a Public Folder

[jenniep]

Does anyone know how to set up delegate for a Public Folder?

HI!

You can change the permissions of the folder.

Normaly it is done by the current owner of the folder (or administrator with relevant permissions), using Outlook 2000 client, right-click that folder and go on.

I want to be able to send mail on the behalf of the public folder. How do I do that? Is it possible?

Exchange Admin:
Properties of pub folder, Permissions Tab, "Windows NT accounts with permissions" - add the desired user and give him/her/group "user" role.
(If you don't see this, in exchange admin, go to TOOLS|OPTIONS|Permissions and click the check marks on the bottom of the screen, numbers 1 & 2 of the 4 options.)

After you have perms as desc. above, when you're creating a new mail, u need to go to VIEW|FromField and in that field on the email, browse to or type the name of the public folder (public foler will need to be visible on the GAL, in admin under properties of pub folder under Advanced tab).

This will send the mail message from the public folder name/address.

good luck

Ok, I think this is a stupid question, but I need a solution.
What is Exchange Admin? Is it a special program? I thought it was user classification, but the options you have listed are not available when I'm using the admin id. We use Outlook and system manager to manage accounts. Are we missing something?

We're using Exchange 2000 w/ Outlook 2000.

Thanks for your help!

Sorry, "Exchange Admin" is the Exchange version 5.5 administration .exe for making changes on everything from mailboxes to routing connections.

In Exchange 2000, I have no experience yet as we are not migrating until around 3rd quarter next year.

Exchange 2000 works closely with Active Directory and I believe that the email enabled public folders would somehow be an object in Active Directory and you would access them and modify properties (including permissions) from the MMC with an exchange snap in. (???)

Sorry I don't know any of the details for you on E2K.

Anyone else that can help Jenniep?

Mail enabled PF's are in the AD. Microsoft Exchange System Objects is the folder. Created by default if your in mixed mode. Also in E2K you can create PF's via the ESM. Dan
