Bad phrase of mine probably, but take a look at Q262054. "If your logon account is the Administrator account or is a member of the Domain Admins or Enterprise Admins groups, then you are explicitly denied access to all mailboxes other than your own, even if you otherwise have full administrative rights over the Exchange system. Unlike Exchange Server 5.5, all Exchange 2000 administrative tasks can be performed without having to grant an administrator sufficient rights to read other people's mail."
I was speculating that this might have a knock-on effect to PF rights. If I look at the administrative rights (advanced button) on a PF I see a list of special "deny"s listed for domain admins and enterprise admins.

Your comment is interesting, do you have any information about why being an enterprise admin fouls this up. Sounds amazing Thanks Mike -----Original Message----- From: Mark Harford [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2002 10:47 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Public Folder Permissions Vanish You're not a domain or enterprise admin are you? This definitely fouls things up. If so, remove your account from these groups and retry. We always use a secondary account and the Run As feature for admin type tasks.

Its only effecting me as the exchange admin :-( if I apply permissions to other people via ESM then it's fine. It's effecting all folders Thanks for your thoughts.
