Adding Folder to Business Contact Manager in Outlook 2007

[Steve]

I want to add a subfolder under "Business Contact Manager" in Outlook 2007 to
store emails. However, I get an error message saying I don't have permission.
What's up with that? This is my computer, used at home only by me.

The error message says to right-click the top-level folder (which I assume
is "Business Contact Manager"), and then right-click Properties. When I do
that, there is absolutely nothing there about permissions to either show or
change them.

How do I fix this; I'd really like to keep my business email separate from
my personal stuff.

Thanks!

BCM marks all it's folders' properties as read-only, so you can't
rename them or create sub-folders.

The right way to do this is to make a folder under you Inbox...that's
where all your emails are stored. You can create two: one Personal,
one Business, or whatever works for you.

If you are using E-mail Autolinking in BCM, confirm that the emails
you want to link are checked in the Business Contact Manager, Manage E-
Mail Autolinking dialog.
