I have no idea how this is happening....in some of our public folders, blank
posts have started showing up. There is no data in the post, and stranger
still, there is nobody listed as being the poster. How can that happen? How
do I stop it? It's pretty annoying to see multiple messages each day that are
just blank.

What permissions are on the folders? Can they receive email from the
Internet?

The one I'm talking about currently CAN receive from the Internet, but it
doesn't HAVE to be able to. The weird thing is, I had been deleting the blank
posts and they kept popping back up. However, I just left the post there
yesterday and nothing new popped up. Have you ever see that behavior in a
posting? Interestingly, one of our helpdesk technicians had posted something
several days ago to validate the permissions on the folder, but after he was
done he deleted it. The next day it popped back up. He deleted it, and the
next day it showed up again. We leave it in there and no more pop up.
Strange, huh?

Couple of suggestions: disable AV, run isinteg against the pub, look for any
custom/3rd party sinks/applications that may touch the public folders.
