Hi everyone,

I was following the instruction from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237825/en-us trying to set the permission of
a 2nd mailbox from Outlook 2003. But I found I couldn't set the "Folder
Visible" permission because it is grayed out.

Interestly this same permission is available when I connected the same
mailbox with Outlook 98 running on another machine.

Does anyone know if there is any change to be made on Outlook 2003 so that
the "Folder Visible" permission will be available because my Outlook 98
machine will be de-commissioned at any time?

Thanks in advance.

Eric
 
Are you running Outlook with a profile that connects directly to that mailbox, not as a secondary mailbox?

In both cases, I connected this mailbox as a secondary mailbox.

Actually, I just tested with a profile that connects directly to that
mailbox and found the "Folder Visible" permission is available, which
resolves my issue.

Thank you very much, Sue! You are so helpful.
