After delegating, you must (or: should) also set the correct permissions per folder. In your example, user A should also permit userB entrance on his/her folder he/she just delegated.
Well, at least that’s how i got it working 🙂

dang .. worked for nme though 🙁

how is user B linking the delegated folders? There are two ways to connect to folders of another account:
1) By simply using the menu ‘FILE – OPEN – open other user’s folder’
2) At the exchangesettings (emailaccountsettings) adding ‘open these additional mailboxes’
User B could try adding userA’s mailbox there instead of by “opening another user’s folder”

keep me posted 🙂

By simply using the ‘File – Open – Open other user’s folder’. dont want to do at exchange level because users want to delegate who ever they want and when ever they want

is it ‘only’ the calendar which cannot be found or the inbox as well?
