I was hoping someone here could answer a question on mail logging security for me. Thanks in advance for reading.
We've got mail logging setup for a customer using the message archival method (the per user rules option was deemed to cumbersome for them). The problem that we've come across is that the contents of the Storage public folder that retains all the mail is visable to everyone. That's problematic for obvious reasons. The problem is that I'm not certain how to adjust the permissions on that folder so that the contents are secure but the mail in it is still accessible to Navision users as would be appropriate. I've fiddled with permissions but I either break the mail logging (mail doesn't get placed in the folder) or the accessibility from Navision. What's the trick here? Is there a particular way to set the permissions on that folder to achieve the results we're seeking or is "all your mail is now public" an inherent feature?
thanks for your help

They're running Exchange on an SBS 2003 server and NAV 5.0 SP1. I realize that this is an Exchange configuration issue, or rather an issue with the way Exchange's public folder security interacts with the NAV mail logging. I was hoping that someone else out there might have Outlook Integration / Mail Logging running out there and have some advice to offer. I'm pretty sure thatmy customer's desires run in opposition to the way the product is built but I was hoping someone out there might have some suggestions to offer.

The Queue is less of a problem than the Storage folder where all the mail ends up. If we could set that up so it was accessible via Navision but not generally viewable that would be ideal. The problem is that, if I understand the way the mail storage works, when someone tried to pull up a logged mail from Navision, it uses the NAV user's permissions to get into the storage folder. Is that correct?
