Use SetUserPrivilegesOnFolder from MailStoreCmd.exe

To use MailStoreCmd.exe we need to know a bit about the environment, but we can use MailStore Client to generate a working command line for us:

Go to the Archive E-mail panel </li>

See if you have any EML or PST or File System profiles that already exist and skip the next step. </li>

If you don't have a profile you can use, create a E-mail Files --> EML profile, set the path to something that doesn't exist ("C:\does-not-exist"), leave the other options at their defaults until you get the checkbox to run the profile now and uncheck this. Save the profile. </li>

Now that you have a profile we can use, right click on it, choose Create task on... </li>

Press the Copy CMD Line button at the bottom. </li>

Paste into Notepad. </li> </ol>
Mine looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c import-execute --id=3 --user="admin" --verbose</code>
Cancel creating a scheduled task, we don't need it, but this is a shortcut to generating a command line and setting the credentials. Once we have the command line above you can delete the profile you created, we don't need it anymore.
Use your command rather than mine as it is personalized to your environment. We need everything up to the -c, this is where we specify the command we want to run, so for example with a base command line:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c</code>
We can GetServerInfo to prove we are connected:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c</code>
The result:
GetServerInfo Connecting... Disconnecting... ******************************************************************* MailStore Command Line Client Version 22.3.0.21002 ******************************************************************* { "version": "22.3.0.21002", "machineName": "EXCHANGEDC" } </code></pre> Now we will retrieve the current status of the user: "C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c GetUserInfo --userName="frank.clark"</code> The result: Connecting... Disconnecting... ******************************************************************* MailStore Command Line Client Version 22.3.0.21002 ******************************************************************* { "userName": "frank.clark", "fullName": "Frank Clark", "distinguishedName": "CN=Frank Clark,OU=Seattle,DC=example, DC=com", "authentication": "directoryServices", "emailAddresses": [ "frank.clark@example.com" ], "pop3UserNames": [], "privileges": [ "login" ], "privilegesOnFolders": [ { "folder": "frank.clark", "privileges": [ "read" ] }, { "folder": "abby.hernandez", "privileges": [ "read" ] }, { "folder": "alexis.page", "privileges": [ "read" ] } ] } </code></pre> Now we will SetUserPrivilegesOnFolder to apply "read, write": "C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c SetUserPrivilegesOnFolder --userName="frank.clark" --folder="abby.hernandez" --privileges="read, write"</code> And the result: Connecting... Disconnecting... ******************************************************************* MailStore Command Line Client Version 22.3.0.21002 ******************************************************************* </code></pre> And finally we can check the results with the previous GetUserInfo command: "C:\Program Files (x86)\MailStore\MailStore Server\MailStoreCmd.exe" --h="localhost" --pkv3="161F2004CB4B5735038E49F3C611D34349180BA9" --cred="admin@127.0.0.1" -c GetUserInfo --userName="frank.clark"</code> Connecting... Disconnecting... ******************************************************************* MailStore Command Line Client Version 22.3.0.21002 ******************************************************************* { "userName": "frank.clark", "fullName": "Frank Clark", "distinguishedName": "CN=Frank Clark,OU=Seattle,DC=example, DC=com", "authentication": "directoryServices", "emailAddresses": [ "frank.clark@example.com" ], "pop3UserNames": [], "privileges": [ "login" ], "privilegesOnFolders": [ { "folder": "frank.clark", "privileges": [ "read" ] }, { "folder": "alexis.page", "privileges": [ "read" ] }, { "folder": "abby.hernandez", "privileges": [ "read", "write" ] } ] } </code></pre>
