Deleting someone elses emails

[netnut1234]

Hi,

We were running MS Exchange 2000 and the clients were running MS Outlook 2000, I had a user that had access to various peoples mailboxes and that user could go into someone else inbox, read an email and then drag it into that persons deleted items.
We have upgraded to MS Outlook 2003 and the same uses, now can't drag a deleted email into the users deleted items, but it goes into there own deleted items and this is not what they want.
Is this a security feature of MS Outlook 2003 that was not available in MS Outlook 2000

Thanks
Tim

I think I experienced the same problem you have and it took me a WHILE to figure it out. I'm not exactly sure if we have the same problem. In my case, a user has access to multiple mailboxes. His main mailbox is his own user account. The other mailboxes were added to his Outlook. This user hasn't been able to delete emails from other user mailboxes or move them around. The only way I found to fix that is to create separate Outlook profiles for this user. When the user wanted to move folders around in another person's mailbox, he would have to select that particular mailbox in order to perform those tasks. I always thought it was something to do with MS Updates but to think of it, it might be upgrade to Outlook 2003... The customer complained about this a long time after the upgrade.
