  • No what I meant was, are you wanting a bunch of different users to be able to see and respond to emails or? I deliberately left off Public Folders because they're a management nightmare. Are you currently using Public Folders or would you be turning them on just for this?

  • It's a long time since I used exchange 2003, but if I recall correctly you can simply "mail enable" them in the interface and job done. It's an absolute nightmare though - my default position for public folders these days is "don't... just don't".

Yes, it's possible. You need to mail enable the PF in ESM. The PF will be assigned an email address based on your Default Recipient Policy, but the email address can be changed if needed. You'll need to make sure the Anonymous and Default entities have the Contributor role on the PF in order to recieve email to the PF.

This is a pretty decent step-through of what you're trying to accomplish. It's for Exchange 2000, but the steps should be the same for 2003.
