I am a network admin for Windows and Unix based environment, my question was with regards to MS Exchange - We have exchange 2003 setup for our server environment and use Outlook 2002 and 2003 as the e-mail client on the front end, at the present moment it seems as a lot of users are able to view other users "Outlook Inbox" which they should not be able to, now some of the users have shared their "Outlook Calendar" but not their "Outlook Inbox". I have gone in their mail box rights and have looked at their permission settings, I don't see a permission that is set so that everyone within the company can view their Inbox, moreover when I go into their "Outlook Inbox" and right click and select properties and then go to permissions, only "Default" is set to none. I know I am missing something somewhere which is causing this to happen.
Can someone help me solve or troubleshoot this problem, as I don't want company employees to be going into Managements Inbox. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nishi

By default Exchange 2003 is not set up this way, but something may have been changed.
Mailbox permissions can be tricky, in this case it is useful to isolate one or two sample users with the problem.
First, make sure you know all of the AD groups that the users belong to.
Next, open Exchange System Manager and right-click your organization and select Deleggate Control. Make sure the user and any groups they belong to are not listed as an Exchange Admin.
Next, open AD U&C and go to Mailbox Rights. Is the user or any group they belong to listed here? If so select it and see what rights are being assigned.
