SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:
  • In an Exchange organization, you have a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 server that has a public folder store installed.
  • There are also other Exchange servers that have public folder stores installed in the same Exchange organization.
  • You configure public folder replication to replicate the public folders to the Exchange Server 2010 public folder store.
  • You create items in the public folders of these other Exchange servers.
In this scenario, you cannot edit the items on the Exchange 2010 public folder store after they are replicated, even though you are the owner of the items.
