Re: Accessing same mailbox from two locations



Is there some reason this user cannot log in as "user1" on both computers?
We have about the same setup here, Outlook 2003 with Exchange 2003, and I
can go to any of the 135 PCs in the building, login as myself, setup an
Outlook profile for myself, and open my Exchange mailbox. If I care to, I
can log into several of these machines as myself and open Outlook with my
profile and mailbox on all of them.

Programs in use: Active Directory and Exchange Server 2003

I need to share 1 mailbox between two users (user1 and user2). Both users
are the same person, just different computers at two locations on the same
network. The User1 account was created 8 years ago, then we acquired a
second building where another computer resides. This user travels back
and
forth. The user needs to see the same mailbox while logged on as either
user1 or user2. To accomplish this goal, I created user2 WITHOUT an
exchange
mailbox. I applied the following permissions:

1. Within Active Directory, I went into the Security on the user1 account
and added user2 with Read, Send As, Read Account Restrictions, etc.
permission
2. Next, I went into Exchange Advanced on the user1 account, opened
Mailbox
Rights, and gave user2 full mailbox access
3. Next, I logged on as user2, went into the Control Panel, opened
Mailbox,
and added the user1 to the profile. This way, when user2 opens the
mailbox,
the user1 profile would load

This works. User2 can see user1's inbox. The only problem is, user2
cannot
send or reply to email. We receive "You do not have sufficient permission
to
perform this operation on this object. See the folder contact or your
system
administator." I cannot enable a Delegate or assign permissions within
Outlook on the user1 account because I did not create an exchange mailbox
on
the user2 account. We currently have several users setup the same way
(i.e., one mailbox being shared by two users), and I applied the same
permissions, but it just won't work. Any advise is much appreciated.
