Default security - private calendar entries

Hi Sue, thanks for replying to my post. Let me be more specific:

1. User A (folder owner) grants reviewer permissions (read access) on all
folders of his mailbox for user B

2. in OL2003 user B opens user A's mailbox; when she opens user A's calendar
she can read all the calendar entries except those which have been marked
private by
user A as it should be

3. in OL2003 user B exports user A's mailbox and saves it as a *.pst file.
When she opens the exported *.pst file also the private entries in user A's
calendar are visible and can be read by user B

Why is that? And is there a way to avoid it.

Thanks and kind regards,
Eveline

No, and no. Did the folder owner grant the delegate access to private items?

if a user opens another user's calendar for which he has been given delegate
rights and exports the calendar folder in Outlook 2003, private entries are
visible in the exported calendar file. This problem is considered to be a
security risk by a customer of mine.
Is there a solution for this problem? e.g. preventing the user from
exporting the calendar folder through policies??

thanks for your help.
