I posted this before on 12/24 but my post disappeared
after one response.
We have a single server environment with Win2000 server
and Exchange 2000. We just found out recently that through
Outlook, everyone can open all other user's mailbox
folders. The only exception is the Administrator. He
cannot open anyone's. There seems to be no security. I ran
throught the typical permissions for inboxes and they are
properly set to "none". I checked the file permissions on
the M: drive as well as the Exchsrv folder and I don't see
any glaring problems but I'm not sure what should be there
and what shouldn't. Most of these permissions are
inherited anyways. Does anyone have any idea what these
permissions should be or what else might be causing this
problem?
 
Have the Exchange Admin check the top level permissions on Exchange - it
sounds like s/he set something so that the default is contributor.
