Public folder subscriptions with Outlook
This is more an Outlook issue than Dovecot, but given that it is connected to Dovecot I figured there would be a good pool of knowledge here that increases the likelihood that somebody knows the answer :)
I have a Dovecot server setup with a public folder and keep getting complaints that Outlook users don't see new folders created by other people. In Thunderbird it is simply a case of unchecking the box to only show subscribed folders, but I can't find a way to do this in Outlook. The only thing I can think of is putting a script on the server to check for new folders and update each users subcriptions file, but I'm not completely happy with that solution!
Any suggestions welcome.

Mainly 2010, but I think there may be a 2003 too. At the moment I'm looking into using 'subscriptions = yes' in the namespace to use a shared subscriptions file for the public folder - posting to this list has started me thinking of things I can do on the server rather than the client.
