Hey Drahl, Enabling Public folders is a must for BB calendar functionality. Also, make sure permissions are set properly and double check that "deny" is set to "false" and there is duplicate permissions.
For more information about Public Folders, read: http://www.besadmin.info/view.php?id=KB15582 Kindest Regards, Sent on the move, from my Javelin. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Date: Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:42:40 To: <[email protected]> Subject: Bes-Admins Digest, Vol 25, Issue 1 Send Bes-Admins mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://www.dataoutages.com/mailman/listinfo/bes-admins or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Bes-Admins digest..."

They do go to the Inbox in the Outlook client. I was reading the guide for BES v5 and it mentioned a pre-requisite is to set your Exch07 server to support Outlook clients less than 2007 (i.e. set to allow Outlook 2003 clients) and to have a Public Folder. None of our users use Outlook 2003, we are all Outlook 2007 and as a result I set our Exch07 server to not allow anything less than Outlook 2007, and I removed the Public Folders because I knew that Exch07 doesn't require PF like Exch03 did. Anyone have thoughts about Public Folders?

My problems come from the active node getting into a pickle and starts to do funny things. In this case, Enterprise Activations won't work, or for some users they cannot send email. Throughout, they can continue receive email with no issues. Failing over to the passive remedies this for a few weeks, then we have to failover again.
