Set permissions in a folder

If you are the owner of a public folder, you can set permissions in the folder to give users the ability to perform certain functions. By adding the user names, distribution list names, or public folder names to the Name box on the Permissions page, you can determine who can:

• Create items
• Read items
• Create subfolders
• Edit items
• Delete items

You can also determine who is the Folder owner and the Folder contact and to whom the Folder is visible.

To set permissions:

1. In the Folder list, right-click the public folder for which you want to set permissions and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.
2. Click the Permissions page.
3. Click the Add button to add a user name to the list. Choose a name from the Address Book and click OK.
4. Select the user's name in the Name box for whom you want to alter permissions.
5. In the Permission level box, choose the role for this user. The permissions check boxes will automatically revert to the default values for this role.
6. If you want to define a custom role, check the permissions check boxes that you require for this user. The value in the Permission level box will change to "Custom".
7. When you have set the Permission level for all the users, click OK on the Properties page.

Note To remove a name, select the name and click Remove. You can remove any name from the Name box except Default.
