Public Folder Error SBS 2003 SP2

[Robbiec]

Hi All

I have a SBS Standard box working well enough except I have created a public folder but no email is arriving into the mailbox externally.

The email address in question was once configured as an internal Distribution Group in which email from external sources would be sent to everyone in the office to read. However this didn't allow everyone to see when email was read/unread, replied etc.

So I removed the exchange email address for the distribution list and created a public folder with the same email address. For some reason I can't get emails coming into the required Public Folder. The folder is listed in Outlook though.

I created a different public folder with a different email for testing purposes and the email arrived. Can anyone suggest anything to check ?

I've confirmed the primary smtp is correct.

Regards

Robbie

Compare the permissions on the 2 folders, thats really the only thing, i think Anonymous has to set to "contributor" for the mail to arrive
