Sounds like you're doing Bricks Level Backups. Native Windows backups
doesn't do this type of backups so you need to follow the backup
vendors instructions on what rights to assign to the backup account.
If the folder owner doesn't want to play ball then it's his tough luck
and you tell him that you're not doing an item level backup of his
folders. He will still have the entire PF tree backed up using the
normal Exchange backup, but will lose out on an item level restore.
Either way, it's not a problem for you to lose sleep over.
