The following table lists examples of valid URLs to use with the Explorer.

Exchange store URL Description
http://server1/exchange/username/ A mailbox store.
http://server1/public/ The default public folder used by MAPI clients.
http://server1/PFT1/ A new public folder tree, established as a Virtual Directory.

Note  Mailbox stores do not initially have global schema definitions.

The URL can continue down the hierarchy to the node you want to work with. For example, to work with the public folder Poll, enter http://server1/public/Poll.
