  • Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server

SYMPTOMS

If you deny an Exchange administrator permissions to some global address lists in your organization, this administrator can only administer global address lists for which he or she has permissions.

WORKAROUND

Do not deny any administrator permissions on any global address list.
