Security tab permissions in AD revert back send as bes admin

[magnus911]

hi Guys,



Should be a quick one; and i'm beating my head against a desk here because I had this problem once before about 3 years ago and I can't remember how I fixed it!



Basically, I have been asked to install a BES server for a company as a member server. All is up and running; apart from the fact the users can't send.



The problem was, I needed to add a 'send as' permission to the security tab of the relevant users' AD accounts. i duly did so; but this disappears a few minutes later! The 'allow inheritable properties' wasn't clicked either, so I added a tick to that and then set the send as permission on the OU to see if I could get that to take. Unfortunately, the 'allow inheritable' tick I added just disappears along with the inherited permission.



I can't remember why it is that these security settings are overwritten. There are no 'deny' properties set; and as I said before; these accounts aren't inheriting from elsewhere.



The setup is Server 2003 for both the AD, Exchange and BES (all on separate hardware).



Please help!

They must be part of a protected AD group.

Remove their group memberships one by one and test. I bet you'll find that's the problem.
