Organizational Forms Library Permissions?
 

A user created a form, sent it to me to publish. I'm the Exchange
Administrator, so I'm the only one who can publish to the Organizational
Forms Library. No problem, it published just fine. The problem comes in
when people try to view it. In my part of the building, there are 6 people
including myself. Of those 6 people, 3 can see the form in the Library, and
the other 3 cannot. Also, the department for which this form was created
cannot see it listed.

I did not change any security on the .oft file she sent me, and I'm not even
sure if that matters. What am I doing wrong to cause certain people to be
able to see it and others not?

Organizational Forms Library Permissions?
 

Could it be a replication issue, assuming you have multiple servers?

That was my initial thought, except for the fact that now it has been over 3
hours. Also, of the 6 people in my building, we are all housed on the same
Exchange server, but only 3 of us can see the form.

Are the users all using Outlook 2003 in Cached Exchange mode? If so, do you see any different behavior if you use a profile that doesn't use Cached Exchange?

No, I personally am using Outlook 2003 not in cached mode. One of the other
people who can see the form is using Outlook XP, and another is using Outlook
2000. It doesn't appear to be version specific.

So I just created a whole new form, and published it to the Organizational
Forms Library, and same thing. Only the same three people can see it in
there. I am way past stumped now.

Yes. I'd probably make backup copies of the forms, delete the library and create a new one.
