Prevent writing to contacts folder

**Mario Snijders** · July 22nd 08, 03:18 PM posted to microsoft.public.outlook.contacts

Hello,
I want to prevent users in our network to write into their personal contacts
(the one belonging to their mailbox within Exchange 2003) since we have a
central contact folder. Can this be done, or can we at least hide the
personal contacts so users will not be able to add contacts there of maybe
setup a form in order to block input?
All users are running Outlook 2007.

Thanks in advance

I don't believe it's possible to prevent somone from writing to their own
default folders.
