Hi Jay. I finally figured out my problem and was able to resolve it.
I had created a group policy to allow all my users to have local admin
access to their PCs (legacy software requirement). Somehow, that also
gave them local admin privileges to the exchange server. So - while
they couldn't login at the console or directly administer the domain -
they still had access to all of the other users' exchange folders. I
deleted this policy and suddenly everything worked. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem with my exch2003 server. I have enabled forms based
auth, but once logged on, i can access other users' mailboxes by typing their
name in the url. I don't know if it has something to do with upgrading from
exch2000, but I did notice that when i try to remove usernames from the
mailbox security, it says that this object is inheriting permission from the
parent, but the inheritance box doesnt even show up to uncheck it. So I have
explicitly denied permisions to users and groups that should not have access.
They still can if they type the name in the url.
