Propagating Folder Settings

The Propagate settings command is available only for folders that have subfolders. Use this command to apply the options that you set for a parent folder to all its subfolders. In this way, you can make sure that all the subfolders have the same settings as their parent folder, without configuring each folder individually. After the parent's settings are applied, you can still change the subfolder's settings. Changing the settings on the subfolders does not affect the settings on the parent or other subfolders.

Use the Propagate settings command in Exchange System Manager by right-clicking the parent folder and clicking Propagate settings. You can then specify which settings to apply.
