I've run into a problem that seems to be strictly 2007 outlook
related.. If i try this command it results in an error..

"cannot display the folder" the inbox cannot be found..

I have full rights to the folder and have verified this.

This works fine in 2003 outlook, i've verified this as well...

I dont see too many possible fixes for this out there..

Anyone had this issue and fixed it?

Thanks

update.. i jumped the gun in thinking its an outlook 2007 issue only..
It actually does the same thing in 2003.. I'm wondering if this is a
side effect of migrating from 2003 exchange to 2007.

If i manage to somehow get the profile entered via the mail utility..

I then try to open outlook under this profile and get :

"Cannot open your default e-mail folders" "Your profile is not
configured"

Cheers

So i have the solution.. ill answer my own question... It turns out
that in Exchange 2007, permissions are much tighter.. so even though
after a migration, a user group may have full rights, it DOESNT mean
that those users in that group can access the box.. rights must be
excplicitly defined this time (per user basis).

Microsoft had stated this as the case, but now I'm not so sure.. I was
able to make "domain admins" have rights (overtop of the existing
right).. and then replicated the changes to the DC's.. then logged off
and back onto outlook.. and i did have access to accounts that i didnt
before.. so I think group level permissions still work, they just need
to be readded if migrated from say 2003.
