SYMPTOMS

You may receive the following error message when you try to access public folders through Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA):

Access is denied. Your browser security settings will not allow access to this folder from this page.

You may also experience problems when you try to view Free/Busy information through OWA.

This behavior may occur if your intranet security in Internet Explorer is set to Medium.

To work around this issue, change the intranet security setting in Internet Explorer to a lower level. To do this, follow these steps:

Start Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
Click the Security tab, and then change the Local Intranet security setting to something below Medium.

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

This issue occurs if the public folder store resides on a different server from the OWA server.
