RE: Exchange 2003 public folder message routing after swing
After a number of other hits and misses too numerous and lengthy to explain, I'm back where I started. If I uninstall the old (first one in the org) server, and PF delivery is broken after that, should re-installing the first server fix it easily enough?

I googled and got this article, http://www.kreslavsky.com/2008/07/exchange-2003-event-log-id8206-with-0x8015 0856-error.html which led me to a SiteFolderServer DN that was pointing to the old server. Corrected that, bounced everything on the new server, and still the messages are queueing up for the old server. Checked to make sure it replicated to all DC's and it had. Seems like SiteFolderServer is something I would have needed to do anyway, but there must be something else? Thanks, Carl From: Michael B.

RE: Public Folder Message
Take a look at Siegfried's site www.cdolive.com. There's a script there that will do exactly this.

RE: Public Folder Message
If you right click on a PF in Outlook, choose properties, then the Administration tab, There is a Folder Assistant button, you should be able to set up a rule on the PF to do what you want. Or you can use the Moderated Foder option as well.
