SUMMARY
You cannot create public folders from the Exchange Server Administrator program (in Exchange Server 5.5 and earlier) or Exchange System Manager. You must create public folders from the client software. The only location in which you can delete public folders is the client software. The Administrator program and Exchange System Manager cannot delete public folders.

To create a public folder, you must be logged on to an Exchange client. After you create the folder, you are the owner and you can assign access permissions accordingly from the client software. If you have administrative privileges, you can also assign permissions from the Administrator program or Exchange System Manager.
