If I'm reading the code correctly, this statement specifies the list of
message classes that will be *accepted*, not the ones that will be
*rejected*.  I think you'll need to add the public post message class to the
list instead of removing anything that's there.

The following Microsoft support article indicates that the message class for
items sent to a public folder in Exchange 2000+ is "IPM.Post" instead of
"IPM.Note".

I also found the following site that lists known message classes for
Exchange.  It appears that "IPM.Note" is the standard message class for
received messages.
