Outlook folder permissions





Jun 03, 2008

If your administrator has set up a public folder, you may have permission to use some or all of the folders within the public folder. If someone has shared one of their private folders with you or designated you as a delegate for that folder, then you have permission to perform certain activities in that folder. The extent of the activities you can perform in a public folder, shared private folder, or folder you are a delegate for, depends on your role (or combination of permissions) in that folder, as described next.

With this permission level (or role) you can:

Owner - Create, read, modify, and delete all items and files, and create subfolders. As the folder owner, you can change the permission levels others have for the folder. (Does not apply to delegates.)

Publishing Editor - Create, read, modify, and delete all items and files, and create subfolders. (Does not apply to delegates.)

Editor - Create, read, modify, and delete all items and files.

Publishing Author - Create and read items and files, create subfolders, and modify and delete items and files you create. (Does not apply to delegates.)

Author - Create and read items and files, and modify and delete items and files you create.

Contributor - Create items and files only. The contents of the folder do not appear. (Does not apply to delegates.)

Reviewer - Read items and files only.

Custom - Perform activities defined by the folder owner. (Does not apply to delegates.)

None - You have no permission. You cant open the folder.

Note
With author or editor permissions, a delegate has send-on-behalf-of permission. Sent messages contain both the managers and delegates names. Message recipients see the managers name in the Sent On Behalf Of box and the delegates name in the From box.
