Mailbox default folders language
Microsoft Exchange creates the default mailbox folders (Inbox, Outbox, Sent Items and Deleted Items) when the user first checks his mail through any of the available clients, or when the first message the exchange server delivers to this mailbox (if received before the first mail check form the mailbox owner).
These folders are created in localized language (Arabic for example) if the mailbox owner checked his mailbox through localized client (localized Outlook for example) with localized menu (not using Multi Language Pack). However, this is the case only if the user used MAPI protocol (outlook) or WebDAV (OWA); POP3 and IMAP4 clients don’t send information to the exchange server about the language of the client, thus the folders will be created using English names. Once these names are created, they keep their localized or non-localized names as permanent.
Using the shared M drive on the exchange server, the user can rename his mailbox folders to any name, using any language, he likes to.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Exchange 2000 Enterprise Server
- Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Standard Edition
- Microsoft Outlook 2002 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Outlook 2000 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Outlook Web Access 5.5

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
