Before you begin:
- You must configure Microsoft® Exchange 2007 to support versions of Microsoft® Outlook® earlier than 2007 by creating the public folder database. For more information about supporting earlier versions of Microsoft Outlook, visit http://support.microsoft.com to read article 555851 and visit http://technet.microsoft.com to read articles 123694, 124270, 397221, and 691120.
- You must be an administrator with permission to create accounts.
- On the computer that hosts Microsoft Exchange, log in using an administrator account that has the correct permission to create accounts.
- Open the Microsoft Exchange Management Console.
- Create a Microsoft Exchange account that you name BESAdmin.
- To allow the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to check if a user has permissions to a public folder, assign this account the Owner permission to all public folders.
- Verify that users have Read and Visible permissions to public folders.
- To permit checks for meeting invitee availability for BlackBerry® Device Software version 4.5 or later, configure the Schedule+ free and busy information for the system public folder. For more information, visit http://technet.microsoft.com to read articles 629523 and 691129.
