Public Folder Permissions

Here is what I am trying to do. Exchange 2000 server with Outlook 2000 as the client. Anyone know if this is possible. I have a public folder setup with messages in it that everyone in my company sends on a daily basis. I guess you can call them draft messages. What I want is for them to be able to go to the public folder, double click the message, edit it a little and send it. I know that Exchange will delete the messages if they have rights to delete from the public folder. Here is what I have setup permission wise. They can Read Items, See the Folder, Edit All Items, and Delete No Items. When they try to send the any of the messages, they get an error that says they do not have permission to do this. I can do what I want but I am a domain admin. Anyone know if this can be done and if so how to setup the permissions. This is a big priority for us.

Thanks in Advance

Bill

I believe they need Editor rights: Create, read, modify, and delete ALL items and files.
You might also want to look at the following. I don?t know if it fits your needs. Type the Q number in the search box of technet.microsoft.com.

If I give them delete rights, then the messages will get deleted from the Public Folder, that Q number will not do what I want. Thanks anyway though.

If they can view the folder and items, could they just right-click and drag to copy the item to their inbox, then edit and send it from there?
