Public folders are folders which are not directly linked to any specific user and are used for things such as centralized contact folders, holiday calendars or conference room bookings. Access to these folders can be controlled by an administrator assigning appropriate permissions to users on the MDaemon server.By default, the public folders are stored on the MDaemon server.The default path to the directory which contains the public folder data is: \MDaemon\Public Folders\ Additional comments:Original Text:The public folders are stored on the MDaemon server.Modified Text:By default, the public folders are stored on the MDaemon server.The default path to the directory which contains the public folder data is: \MDaemon\Public Folders\
In Outlook Connector 2.1.0, Outlook Connector added support for system folder names (Drafts, Calendar, Contacts, etc) being translated in Outlook but in English on the server. This is to prevent duplicate folders when WorldClient is using English folder names on the server. This is enabled by default for languages that do not have a localized MDaemon (Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Norwegian, and Swedish). To enable it for another language, after creating the Outlook Connector account, but before starting Outlook with it, edit the account's 'config.xml' and change the switch '' from 0 to 1. Depending on the Operating System of the client machine, the path should be:\Application Data\Alt-N\Outlook Connector 2.0\Accounts\$PROFILE NAME$\user@domain.com
