I have got exchange system tools and exchange read-only admin rights. In ad users and computers I can select a user, view their properties and click on the exchange advanced tab and click "mailbox rights". There are several entires in the ACL, one includes the "everyone" group, which has a grey tick in the "read" permission. Does that mean "everyone" can read each others mailbox? On a file server if everyone group is granted read and execute that seems enough to be able to view and copy files. This is exchange 2003.

No, it means that Everyone is allowed to read the permissions. >On a file server if everyone group is granted read and execute that seems enough to be able to view and copy files. This isn't a file server . :-) --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
