In short no - if you give them change permissions, you may as well give them
full owner (bit like NTFS, really). This is a definite user training issue
for you and Ed's famous quote comes in here... 

'There are seldom good technical solutions for behavioral problems'

Alternatively, you could use Publishing Editor which gives most of your
requests.

Subject: Ex 5.5 Public Folder Permissions


I am having a little difficulty with "owners" of folders deleting the top
level folder for their group. Our environment has 500 or so Org Units and
each org unit has a public folder visible to the whole org unit. Within the
Org unit we assign 1 or 2 users with "owner" rights, and the rest of the
members of the org unit are listed with "author" rights.

Our problem is that the "owners" are accidently deleting the top level
folders. 

Is there a way that we can assign permissions to someone which will allow
them to: 
                change the client permissions for the folder;
                view, edit and delete messages;
                create and delete subfolders;
                but not delete the top level folder?

If you have any ideas I am happy to test and investigate further.

Thanks and best regards
