You can grant permissions to a user or to a group, as long as they are mail-enabled. This script can grant a specified user certain permissions to a public folder and its subfolders. These scripts are used to manage the client or end-user permissions to Public Folders. The scripts recursively goes through and updates your public folders replicas for every public folder in a hierarchy that you specify. The scripts are located together with the Exchange binaries, under: C:Program FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerScripts. These scripts only apply to servers running Exchange 2007 or Exchange 2010, you can not specify a server running older versions of Exchange Server, although the Public Folder hierarchy can still be on an Exchange 2003, in case you want to add additional replicas etc (see my previous post).

I have verified that these permissions are set in Exchange Systems Manager as well.Exchange 2010 ships with some powerful scripts for managing Public Folder Client Permissions. I have attempted to do this with my own ID and am having the same problems. I watched the user log out and log in to refresh all credentials and the same error has occured.
