Question : Configure Public Folders Through Outlook

Hello Xperts,

I'm trying to manage and configure permissons on public folders, but I don't seem to be able to get to it for some reason. I logged on as the administrator account, open Outlook and go into the Summary in the properties, everything's greyed out.

How do I change or modify the permissions? I read almost all the articles here, and the quick and easy solution is to use Outlook client to change/add/modify permissions.

Can someone please advise?

Cheers,
Goraek

Answer : Configure Public Folders Through Outlook

Powershell command for 2007 - assuming folder under "All Public folders" is FolderName, and owner-to-be mailbox displayname is OwnerMailbox.

ONE FOLDER
add-PublicFolderClientPermission -identity "\FolderName" -user "OwnerMailbox" -accessRights Owner

ALL FOLDERS under FolderName
get-publicfolder -identity "\FolderName" -recurse | add-publicfolderclientpermission -accessrights "Owner" -user "OwnerMailbox"
