Set permissions in a folder

If you are the owner of a public folder, you can set permissions in the folder to give users the ability to perform certain functions. By adding the user names, distribution list names, or public folder names to the Name box on the Permissions page, you can determine who can:

• Create items
• Read items
• Create subfolders
• Edit items
• Delete items

You can also determine who is the folder owner and the folder contact and to whom the folder is visible.

To set permissions

1. In the Folder List, right-click the public folder for which you want to set permissions, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.
2. Click the Permissions page.
3. To add a user name to the list, click Add.
4. Choose a name from the Address Book, and then click OK.
5. Select the user's name in the Name box for whom you want to change permissions.
6. In the Roles box, choose the role for this user. The permissions check boxes will automatically revert to the default values for this role.
7. If you want to define a custom role, select the permissions check boxes that you require for this user. The value in the Roles box will change to "Custom."
8. When you have set the roles for all the users, click OK on the Properties page.

Note  To remove a name, select the name, and then click Remove. You can remove any name from the Name box except Default.
