    I think you are trying to over analyze this just a tad.  If you want to verify exactly what permissions are on the archive use permissionbrowser.exe as JW2 mentioned above.  I think that should give you a level of comfort moving forward.

I noticed that "TonySterling" posted a reply, but it does not show up here. The synopsis of his comments were to check to see if I had "sync folder permissions" set to ON or OFF. It was set to OFF; I changed it to ON and ran a synchronization task, including folder permissions, across all vaults. However, perhaps I am misunderstanding the usage of this setting.

The particular scenario is this: a shared mailbox, at the very top level of the store, has a couple of distribution groups that have "owner" or "reviewer" permissions assigned to the mailbox. This provides them permissions to the mailbox, but none of these permissions translate automatically to permission to the Vault of this shared mailbox. I'll need to use EVPM to assign these permissions, won't I?
