symptom
Users are unable to view or access public folders after migration.

cause

This issue may occur for any of the following reasons:

• In an InterOrg migration if the mailboxes are using a different server for a public folder server than the one they are using for a mailbox server.
  
• When migrating in an Inter-Org scenario where the target mailboxes are homed on a separate machine from the public folders.
  
• When migrating in an Inter-Org scenario, where the target mailboxes and public folders are homed on separate servers.  For example, a dedicated mailbox server and a dedicated public folder server.  As opposed to a single server that homes both the mailboxes and the public folders.
