Using a Public Folder as a Mailbox
Is the title of the referenced article and in it the author describes
exactly what I want to do. His approach involves setting up an event sink to
Change the Message Class from note to mail.

My objective is to allow several appropriate persons to reply to email from
within this public folder. I have given these users Send As rights and it is
possible for them to reply, but the reply is from the mailbox of the
responder rather than from the public folder. All of the responses should be
from the role rather than from a personal mailbox.

http://www.cdolive.com/changemessageclass.htm is where the source code comes
from.
However, all the references are to Exchange 2000 and I have Exchange 2003,
and some of the event sink documentation is extremely weak.

After changing obvious paths and so forth, it looks like it should work
except for the following reference:
cscript RegEvent.vbs Add "OnSave" ExOleDB.ScriptEventSink.1
"file://./backofficestorage/domain.com/public
folders/contacts/ChangeMessageClass" -file C:\Scripts\ChangeMessageClass.vbs
WHERE "DAV:ishidden" = False

That syntax looks wrong for 2003, but it is only an impression as I have not
done this type of programming.

When I run the script it gives the following: Error Opening Connection
: -2146105340

Thanks to Google, I found a simpler way to do it.
"After you have permission to send as the folder, you can reply to the
message. In your reply, choose View, From, and type in the folder's
address."
and another
"After you create your reply but before you send it, click Options on the
Outlook message toolbar. Under Delivery Options, type the folder's email
address into the Have replies sent to field or click Select Names to select
the folder from the address book. Recipients will see your name as the From
address, but when they reply, their replies will be addressed to the
folder."
