Re: Outlook with Exchange

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Are you sure you're looking at Exchange mailbox folders, and not Windows
folders? I've never seen an Exchange folder with a hand under it, but it is
certainly possible to browse Windows folders from within Outlook.

However, if you really are seeing an indication that a mail folder is
shared, the obvious answer, I guess, would be to go into the properties for
the folders and turn off any sharing that might be there under the
Permissions tab.

a
laptop and take it off the network to use elsewhere)?
