Exchange Permissions
I have an exchange 2010 server running currently, although this problem existed in exchange 2003 as well. The problem is that if a user delegates access to his/her inbox to another user, the delegate can never open the mailbox unless a network admin goes into AD and manually adds the read/send as permissions to the users mailbox. I have a feeling I might be missing some sort of permissions somewhere system wide because this affects every regular box in the store. Could someone help me troubleshoot this? Thanks, Joe

Thanks, Joe In AD can u verify that "Include Inheritable permissions from the parent" is enabled for those problematic users. You can verify it using ADSIEdit.

yes, all users are inheriting permissions from parent, i'm wondering if the parent permissions are incorrect or something? is there a system account that should have permission to all mailboxes for delegation to work properly?

Have u tried this delegation task using Add-MailboxPermission Add-MailboxPermission Owninguser@domain.com -user toUser@domain.com -AccessRights FullAccess May be its not the way you want to delegate mailbox access to other users but at least worthy to try whether it works this way.

yes, i have done that before and it works, but my helpdesk team doesn't have access to the server to run this task so I'd like to get it working through outlook delegation so that the end users can do their own delegation...
