Problem Sharing Sub Tasks

G

Guest

Hi,
I've created Sub Tasks under the main "My Tasks" folder because I only want
to SHARE the Sub Tasks (not the mail folder). I've right clicked and set the
respective permission for my team members, but they cannot see this folder.
Is only sharing a sub task possible? If so, how come it did not work for me?
Thanks so much!

To access a shared folder that isn't one of the folders listed on the File |
Open | Other User's Folder dialog, the mailbox owner needs to grant Reviewer
permission to the root of the mailbox, as well as appropriate permission on
the folder.

The user who needs access then goes into Tools | E-mail Accounts or Tools |
Services (depending on the Outlook version), brings up the properties for
the Exchange Server service, and on the Advanced tab, adds the mailbox.

For more information on folder permissions, with how-to screen shots, see

Alright, how about this. Can I share the root "My Tasks" folder with others
and give them permission to it, but hide the sub folders (or Sub Tasks) from
them so they do not have permission to it? Is this possible? Thanks so much!!
