ZCS Connector How to mount/open a share

how you share and view shared data in the zimbra web client is different than how you share and view shared data using the zimbra connector for outlook. In the web client the share is automatically mounted where in the zco you have to manually mount the share

  • To share something:
    • Right click on a folder and select properties. Select the sharing tab. select a user and select their role. Click ok. The next sync will set the permissions on the folder on the server.

To access contents that have been shared with you:

    • File->Open->Other users mailbox and select the user that has shared a folder with you. A new folder hierarchy will be added for this user and all the contents they have shared with you will be available.

In our next release due out mid-January 2007, the open shared calendar link that you clicked on first time will be honored and it will actually mount a shared calenar. If you are able to read all the contents of the mailbox even though only the calenar was shared to you, you are probably an admin on the server. we're modifying this behavior in a future release so even though you are an admin only data explicitly shared with you is viewable.
