Discrepancies Between Certificates on Server and Client Computers Will Cause Oracle Beehive Integration for Outlook Installations to Fail

Failing to do so will prevent users from installing Oracle Beehive Integration for Outlook.

Delegated User With No Privileges to Granter's Inbox Can Still Send Email on Granter's Behalf

Bug 7158601. A delegated user with no privileges ("Deny All") to a granter's Inbox can still send email on behalf of the granter.

Oracle Beehive Does Not Enforce the "Deny All" Setting on the Deleted Items Folder

Bug 7196020. Oracle Beehive does not enforce the "Deny All" setting on the Deleted Items folder. Therefore, through the Deleted Items folder, it is possible for a delegated user to access items that would otherwise be inaccessible. For example, if a granter applies the "Deny All" setting to both the Deleted Items folder and another folder, and then deletes an item from the latter folder, a delegated user can still view that item in the granter's Deleted Items folder.
