Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

Each mailbox database is configured with a default public folder database. MAPI client applications, such as Microsoft Outlook, open a connection to the default public folder database and perform all hierarchy-based operations against the server that contains that database. These operations include viewing public folders, creating and deleting public folders, and querying for the location of public folder content.
