Moderated Folders

[Amy Brooks]

Just reposting this my previous question, as I haven't had a solution yet.

Basically, I have a public contact folder that anyone can create items for,
but I want to know every time a new contact goes in so I can check it, and
make sure the details are right. I tried it myself in the folder properties,
but it didn't work (see below).

Thanks in advance!

Hi Diane, sorry fot the late reply.

The permissions for ordinary users of the shared contact list are as follows:
____________________________________________________________________
Custom permission level
Checked:
Create Items
Read Items
Create Subfolders
Folder Contact
Folder Visible

Unchecked:
Folder Owner

Edit items is set to All
Delete items is set to None
____________________________________________________________________

Because all users (aside from a few, who have more permissions) have these
permissions, all can view the items.

What permissions does the user have to the folder? Can others with lesser
permissions see the items?

Hi,

We currently have a public folder for contacts. However, because it is
public, and we want everyone to add to it, it means we get duplicates, and
incomplete contacts. So, I looked into moderating it, but can't get it to
work.

Basically, I want people to be able to create contacts, but before they
are
added, they get either emailed to me, or put in a hidden folder. I then
check
the new contact, check for duplicates, then move it into the correct
folder.

Now, when I right-click Properties - Administration - Moderated Folders
etc,
I add my email onto the correct section, add myself and two others as
moderators, click ok. Then, I get someone else (not a moderator) to create
a
contact, but no email goes through, and the contact goes straight to the
public contact folder.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Do user permissions affect it?

Thanks,
Amy
