Oh, that was a random Usenet poster telling another random Usenet poster that they should modify Mailbox permissions from the folders under the M:\ drive. They needed calendar permissions changed, so I assumed (very wrongly) that it could work also for the inbox permissions. However, because of this list, I am afraid to even look at the M:\ icon in Explorer so I thought I'd ask. By the way, no one responded to that random Usenet person telling them they are wrong.
