The value for the PR_ACCESS property that is returned from the DAV PROPFIND method is always read-only in Exchange Server 2003 (888619)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Enterprise Edition
  • Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Standard Edition

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, the value for the PR_ACCESS property that is returned from the Distributed Authoring and Versioning (DAV) PROPFIND method is always MAPI_ACCESS_READ (read-only).

CAUSE

This problem occurs because DAV only requests Read permissions when DAV opens the message on the server. Therefore the PR_ACCESS value that is returned from the EcGetProps() function call is always read-only. DAV always responds with a value of "2" (Read) on the property query regardless of the credentials that are used to access the PR_ACCESS property.
