RE: Making an Outlook folder permanent
I don't know...maybe just create the mailbox? I'm a Domain Admin / Exchange Admin with full Admin rights on my local machine, and I couldn't delete one of the standard folders (Inbox, Sent, Outbox, etc) if I wanted to. If your users can, I would look into the security settings of the local security policy maybe? Or the options you had set for your Outlook install? -Original Message- From: Adams, Kevin C.

RE: Making an Outlook folder permanent
I'm not sure that's completely correct.. I believe you can delete these folders via an IMAP client... like Eudora for example I believe that Outlook itself is what prevents you from deleted the standard folders... not the server... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Blunt, James H (Jim) Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 3:14 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Making an Outlook folder permanent I don't know...maybe just create the mailbox?

RE: Making an Outlook folder permanent
You could write a global store event sink that implements onsyncsave and cancels any deletion or rename of the folder in question. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adams, Kevin C.

Re: Making an Outlook folder permanent
You might be able revoke a user's ownership permissions on his mailbox and then assign him individual permissions on folders therein, but I strongly suspect that Outlook wouldn't function properly in that case. Even if you could, I think it would probably be a waste of time. It would probably be easier to write a daemon that scans all mailboxes and puts back the folder if people delete it.

Re: Making an Outlook folder permanent
I thought that default mailbox folders such as deleted item and others are not able to be deleted. If other just recover them as long as retention is set and possible setting Dumpster always on just in case. I have found that user can delete mailbox folders using the OWa interface. The only way to get them back was to use the reset folders switch when starting Outlook.
