Outlook - Creating Folders

[ColemontHD]

I have a user that is requesting that we create a folder in Outlook that is in the Public Folders for all users to view. However, he wants to set permissions for a select few users to be able to view it, no one else. I know this part is possible, however, he is also asking if it is possible to create subfolders within the main folder itself and not have to set permissions per each subfolder. What I mean is this, since the main folder is set to permissions, can the users that have access to that folder be able to view sub folders without having to set permissions on each sub folder.

I just tried it, and it seems that you have to set permissions per sub folder. Is there a way around this? Thanks!

What version of Exchange? Have you tried setting inherent permissions?

Exchange 2000, we are on the verge of moving to Exchange 2003.

Ok, well, I figured this out on my own. If you create the main folder first, set the proper permissions, any sub folder that is created after setting the permissions on the main folder, is replicated out to the sub folders automatically.
