Hi
I work for a company that has an exchange server and a mixture of
outlook 2000 and 2003.

I am sharing my email wih another user so that they can monitor my
emails while I'm away

How can I share all the folders under the inbox. At the moment my
collegue can only see my inbox. Do i have to set sharing permissions
for every folder?

Regards
Craig
 
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 "folder visible" permission to the root of the mailbox and any other parent folders of the shared folder, as well as appropriate permission -- at least Reviewer -- on the shared folder itself.

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 http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/permissions.htm and http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/preview.aspx?AssetID=HA011134811033
