Set mailbox permissions MAPI (Outlook)

thedude · Dec 23, 2003

Hi,

I need to programmatically set the permissions (Outlook roles) for
users mailbox and inbox. The manual process is to open Outlook, right
click the 'Outlook Today' node, select Properties and then
Permissions.

I've already written the code to generate the MAPI profile required
(C++) and I'm currently logging in via CDO (VB6), but have got stuck
trying to set the permission on these folders.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mark

You can use the ACL.dll with CDO -- see http://www.slipstick.com/dev/exstech.htm for links to resources.

Use the ACL component along with CDO 1.21:
