Article: Q236156
Product(s): Microsoft Exchange
Version(s): winnt:5.5
Operating System(s): 
Keyword(s): exc55 EXC55SP3Fix

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.5 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SYMPTOMS
========

View-Only permissions appear to work for public folders until information store
maintenance or directory service changes occur. After maintenance is finished, a
user with View-Only Admin permissions is unable to view a client's permissions
on the General tab of a public folder.

At the site-level Configuration container, if you configure Windows NT global
groups or user accounts for View-Only permissions, you do not have the full
functionality to view permissions of the groups or accounts in the Exchange
Server directory information tree. When you view public folders in the Exchange
Server Administrator program, neither the client permissions nor the access
control list (ACL) is visible, only an ACL showing "Microsoft System Reviewer."

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server
version 5.5. For additional information, please see the following article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  Q191014 XGEN: How to Obtain the Latest Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack
