Do you have a front-end server in the Exchange 2003 environment? Is that a single-server in the Exchange 2007 environment (i.e., is there a CAS-only box too, or just the single multi-role server?)?

When did the problem begin? Does the problem occur with a new profile for a user on the 2003 server? Does the problem occur with a new profile for a user on the 2007 server? Regards, Michael B.

Are you in cached or online mode? Do they show up "immediately" in OWA? Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Carol Fee [mailto:c...@massbar.org] Sent: Friday, February 05, 2010 2:04 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2003 Public Folder Issue E2K3 Standard up to date on W2K3 SP2 also up to date. Single domain native 2003. External emails to Public Folders are delivered to the folder promptly, and can be seen in ESM. However, there is always a substantial delay ( 10-15 min ) before they can be seen in any Outlook 2K3 or 7 client. We do also have a W2K7 Mailbox/HT/CAS server, but this is not a replication issue. Users connected to both mailbox stores will see the email in the Public Folder with the same delay. The issue exists for all Public Folders that accept external email. Internal email to the same folders can be viewed in the Outlook clients almost immediately. I have no idea what could be causing this or how to find out. ________________________________________ Carol Fee Network Administrator 617-338-0623 c...@massbar.org Massachusetts Bar Association 20 West Street Boston, MA 02111-1204 (617) 338-0500
