Gotcha.

Another question - how can I enumerate shared folders ?

I want to populate a combo box with all available "Shared Contacts" for a
given user's mailbox.
It appears the GetSharedDefaultFolder method requires me to know the name of
an owner ahead of time.

Thanks a bunch !
Jj

Yes, assuming you have permission to add and change items in the Contacts
folder in another user's mailbox, you can access the folder and its items
using the Namespace.GetSharedDefaultFolder method, which returns an Items
collection.
