I am running Exchange 2010 SP1 RU3v3 with mostly Outlook 2007 and 2010 clients. Today my users are reporting that they cannot view their public folders. I was not able to view them either and everyone gets the following error:
cannot display the folder. network problems are preventing connection to Microsoft Exchange.
I have discovered that I can view public folders thru Outlook Web App. I also discovered that if I add a public folder replica on another Mailbox server that I can view them with my Outlook 2010 client. I looked in the Application log on the Mailbox Server that the public folder originally resided on and I did not see any errors.
Any ideas why Full Outlook clients cannot see these public folders but OWA can?
