Check to make sure that your permissions allow you to do what it is that
you're doing.

Check to make sure you don't have any dead users in the permissions of
the folders.

Are these migrated folders or new folders created under Exchange 2000.

If you are mailing, make sure the folders are mail enabled. They are not
mail enabled by default in native mode Exchange 2k.

Conversation: Big problem with Public Folders in Exchange 2000
Subject: Big problem with Public Folders in Exchange 2000


I have noticed that our public folders set up as mailboxes are not
working.  I can send mail to the public folder, and it gets to the
folder, but if I try to open, it hangs (message that Outlook is
retrieving data from the Microsoft Exchange Server <server>.  You can
cancel request...).  The message shows in the upper pane, but the
details do not show in the details pane.  If I open the folder and try
to delete some messages (that are spam), I get a prompt asking if I am
sure I want to delete, I click yes, and sometimes I have to do this 3
times before the message dissapears.  I have restarted the Exchange
server and my PC w/ no luck. 
All of my mailboxes are working, it is just with the public folders. 
Also, I created a new public folder as a mailbox for testing and when I
try to send a message to that account, auto-complete attempts to guess
[EMAIL PROTECTED], but displays tester<TESTER5BEE160740436CD8E.....>.  The
message appears in the preview pane, but the details pane is blank with
an informational "This item cannot be displayed in the preview pane.
Open the item to read its contents."  Can anyone explain what is
happening and how to fix this?  Sorry for the length, but I wanted to
give as much info as possible.  FYI - it's Exchange 2000 server, Outlook
2002 clients, no obvious events in event viewer, all pertinent Exchange
services seem to be running.  Any suggestions will be greatly
appreciated.
