Synchronizing Exchange Mailboxes and Public Folders
google ad 120x240 white banner - Outlook pages
What
about synchronizing appointments or other items in an Exchange Server
mailbox folder with a group calendar or other folder in Public
Folders?
Here's a trick for appointments: Since every public folder has an
e-mail address by default (on the Properties dialog for the
folder, choose Add to Personal Address Book), you can simply
invite a public folder calendar to a meeting.
Also, don't forget that for offline use, you can drag any public
folder to Public Folders/Favorites and set the Favorites copy to
synchronize.
Other than that, Outlook does not provide any built-in mechanism
for syncing between Outlook mailboxes and Public folders, hence the
list of tools on this page.
