We discovered that you cannot delete or move folders from a shared mailbox if they contain sub-folders.  A message is displayed "Cannot monve the items. Cannot copy this folder because it may contain private items"  There are no private items in the folders. 

Environment:

  • Exchange 2010 Sp1
  • Outlook 2010

Steps to reproduce:

  • Create a Shared mailbox and assign the user full access.
  • Have the user add the shared mailbox as a an additional mailbox.  Account Settings>More Settings> Advanced tab.  "Open these additional mailboxes"

Within the shared mailbox 

  • create "Folder 1"
  • Inside "folder1" create a subfolder called "Folder2"
  • attempt to move or delete "Folder1"

There are a couple post discussing this topic but no solution or declaration that is is by design.  Please let us know if there is a work around for this.
