Hi hagman,

What you can do is add your admin account as an owner on the top level
folder (should be able to access that) then with the 5.5 admin program
choose to Propagate settings. ( I think it is a button on the general tab).
Propagate down the permissions for the whole tree. That should take care of
your problem.


Thanks again, Matthew,

Meanwhile I got a bit further:
I applied Your tips and also the procedure from MS KB article 272570.
Now I (i.e. the previously powerless Administrator account) can see the
complete folder structure, but no messages inside.
Instead I get an error message stating "The folder cannot be displayed.
The content is not available. The content has not yet been replicated
to this site or the server is not available. Contact sysadmin" (not
sure about the English wording - my message is in German).

But I'm sure that the content is still there:
I've downloaded a third-party recovery tool and can see and read
gazillions of meassages.
However, I'm not (yet) willing to spend $950,- for the full version
that is able to store and export this data.
