Rob do you have any Ex2k7/2k3 servers around? I ask because most of the public folder tools in Exchange 2010 have enough issues with them where the recommendation now is to use the ex2k3/2k7 tools to make modifications to folders on those servers and let the changes replicate out to the E14 replicas.
Until till this is corrected in a future RU/SP you should just use the ESM or the ex2k7 EMS/EMC to make the changes to the folders that reside on those servers.
