| Description | The Pickup directory doesn't have the necessary Read permissions and Delete Subfolders and Files permissions for Pickup directory %1. |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft : Cause : This Error event indicates that the Network Service user account on the Hub Transport Server or Edge Transport server does not have the correct permissions assigned on the Pickup directory or on the Replay directory. These permissions are required so that message files that are copied to the Pickup directory or the Replay directory can be successfully submitted. The Pickup directory is used by administrators for mail flow testing, or by applications that must create and submit their own messages. The Replay directory is used to resubmit messages that administrators export from the queues of Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 servers. The Pickup directory location is controlled by the PickupDirectoryPath parameter on theSet-TransportServercmdlet. By default, the Pickup directory is located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\TransportRoles\Pickup. The Replay directory location is controlled by the ReplayDirectoryPath parameter on theSet-TransportServercmdlet. By default, the Replay directory is located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\TransportRoles\Replay. If you change the location of the Pickup directory or the Replay directory, the Microsoft Exchange Transport service uses the security credentials of the Network Service user account to create the new directory and apply the correct permissions. If the new directory does not already exist, and the Network Service user account has the permissions that are required to create folders and apply permissions at the new location, the new directory is created, and the correct permissions are applied to the directory. If the new directory already exists, the existing folder permissions are not checked. User Action : To resolve this error, verify that the directory that is specified in the error message text has the following permissions assigned to the Network Services user account:1.List Folder/Read Data 2.Read Attributes 3.Read Extended Attributes 4.Create Files/Write Data 5.Create Folders/Append Data 6.Write Attributes 7.Write Extended Attributes 8.Delete Subfolders and Files 9.Read Permissions |
