Deploying master category list to co-workers ?
 

Hi, I know there are 3rd party enterprisewide packages available, but is
there a simple way for me to distribute my own category list (ca 15
categories) to my 10+ coworkers ? We all use OL 2007. Best Olof (Sweden)

Assign every category to an e-mail, send that to your mates, then ask
everyone to right click on the top folder, choose Properties, and click
Update to Color Categories. Maybe that will do it. But that won't spread
your colors.

As it sounds like you just want to do it once, you might install Category
Manager (link in my sig), and use that tool to export/import all of your
categories and colors. The trial works for 30 days, that should be good for
deploying your categories easily to everyone.

Display the folder list, the top folder is probably called "Personal Folder"
or "Mailbox - YourName".
