Did you get removed from the Exchange
Administrator Administrator group membership
in Active Directory?
Use ADU&C (Active Directory Users and Computers)
to see is your membership list is missing a vital group.
Look for the tool called PFDavAdmin.exe (Google It). Use this to
check your permissions on the public folders. I use this tool frequently
to troubleshoot permission problems in Public Folders.
Public folders will use the info from the machine you are logged into.
Are you logged into the machine with the same entity as the account
that is the owner?
example: My Active directory account called AdminNikki is owner
of all my public folders. But if I log into my machine as
NikkiTest, then open Outlook using my AdminNikki, I will
see only the permissions that NikkiTest have, even though
I am logging into my Outlook profile as AdminNikki.
If I log into the machine using my AdminNikki, then open
my AdminNikki exchange mail, then I will see all of my
Public Folders and I will be owner.
And lastly, you may find more concise information by asking
this in the Exchange Admin community. There is very little that
those guys can't help you with.

AHH!! I am in EXACTLY the same boat! It's driving me nuts! I also noticed
that I cannot even view the permissions I have granted in the past on public
and shared folders! Unfortunately, I am the only in-house Admin., so I have
nothing to compare. I just got off the phone with MS tech support and they
said they were going to have to correct some executable files, which they
were more than willing to do...for a charge. I don't know how my outsourced
IT department would feel about that though, so I figured I better wait for
them to come up with a solution. That may take a while though, so if you
have found an answer, I'd love to know what it is!
