Synchronizing Permissions

We are using EV 9.0 with Outlook 2003. We have some users who have shared a folder on Outlook. When the user who the folder was shared to goes to Archive Explorer they can see the users mailbox. This freaking out a few of my users who probably forgot that they shared the folder. The question is can you prevent the synchronization of permissions and apply them explicitly.

  • You can check this setting:

    Synchronize folder permissions (Exchange Archiving General setting)



    Description

    Controls whether synchronization of delegate and shared folder permissions within mailboxes are synchronized. If these are not synchronized, only mailbox owners have access to the corresponding archives. For example, this prevents delegates, from having access to mailbox archives.


    Supported values

    • Off. Folder permissions are not synchronized.

    • On (default). Folder permissions are synchronized.


    Legacy name

    SynchronizeFolderPermissions

    See Exchange mailbox policy advanced settings

  • You will also find an oldish script in the Dowmnloads section of the forum which will report across mailboxes and list folders with non standard permissions.
