Default Roles Available in Exchange
Microsoft® Exchange provides a set of default levels of access that you can use when you are setting permissions on objects in the Exchange store. These levels of access are called "roles." However, they are not related to the roles that you can configure programmatically in the Exchange store.
The following table lists the default roles that are available when you are working with application public folder hierarchies and the permissions that each role has. These permissions are listed in "Permissions Used in the Windows NT Security Descriptor" in Permissions Available in Exchange.
