Public Folders

[Guest]

Where in the Outlook 2003 policy can you find the option to list the public
folders on the default folder list? I would like the public folders to be
listed with the default user folders for all my users.

To view public folders, the user needs to click the Folder List button at bottom left to display the Folder List navigation pane.

I know that. I would like to enable it by default with a policy.
Thanks.

Enable what? The option to click the Folder List doesn't involve any policy.

policy.

I think the OP wants the Folder List to be the default view on everyone's
Navigation Pane.

Let me clarify what I am looking to do. all I want is a Group Policy that
will list the public folders on the inbox all folder list by default without
my 1000 users clicking on folder list everytime they want to see the public
folders.

In other words, "Yes, Brian, that's exactly what I want."?

Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\WunderBar

Value name: BootModule

Value type: REG_DWORD

Value: 0 to show the Mail folders, 5 to show the Folder List, and 6 to show the Shortcuts pane. (The Shortcuts pane needs to have the Inbox folder in it, if the Inbox is the user’s startup folder.)



I don't know if it will work as a policy, but feel free to try it.
