Default Restricting Private Folders


Hi, I need to know whether you can restrict users from
creating folders (ie under Inbox, contacts, etc) in their
Mailbox. Either with a policy or some other method.

The desktop os is a mix of Win2K and WinXP, and the
server is Exchange 2000.

What I need is a definative NO, or a pointer in the right
direction on how to do this.

Thanks!!

Peter

It's their mailbox. They can create whatever folders they like unless you develop and install an add-in that deletes every folder they try to create.
