David, here is some more on how a user can assign delegation and set permissions using Outlook. Of course this does not hint on how I can compose a message on behalf of someone else using JFW, but this is to answer your assertion that delegation should not be assigned remotely. Hth Frank Ventura Just as an assistant can help you manage your paper mail, your assistant can use Outlook to act on your behalf: receiving and responding to e-mail, meeting requests, and meeting responses. You can also grant additional permissions that allow your delegate to read, create, or have full control over items in your mailbox.
If all you want is for someone to be able to see what"s in one or more of your folders (your Inbox, your Calendar, etc.), just use Folder Sharing with permission set to reviewer. For this situation we recommend that you do not use Delegate Access. As the person granting permission, you determine the level of access that your delegate has to your folders: reviewer (read-only) through full rights to read, create, change, and delete items. If you use the default values, your delegate will *Have full access (view, create, edit, delete) to your Calendar and Tasks folders. *Receive your meeting requests, and responses to meeting requests you have sent. Your delegate will not see any other messages sent to you. *Be able to respond meeting requests on your behalf. *Have "Send on Behalf" permission, which means your delegate can compose and send meeting invitations that, when received, will say they come from "Bob Assistant on behalf of Judy Manager" (with real names, of course). In these examples we'll refer to the manager (as the person who is sharing their data) and the delegate (as the person who has been given access to the manager's data), but your situation may involve people in a variety of roles. If you want to allow the delegate to see all of the messages in your Inbox, or be able to send messages other than meeting invitations on your behalf, you must grant additional permissions. If you grant someone access to your folders, that person has access to all items in the folders except those marked private. Items in sub-folders are not available to the delegate unless you change the sharing permissions on each sub-folder. New sub-folders (created after the Delegate Access was established) inherit the folder access permissions of the parent folder. Grant Delegate Access 1.Select Options from the Tools menu. 2.Click the Delegates tab, and then click Add. 3.Select the name of the person whom you want to designate as your delegate, or search for and select the name in the search results list. 4.Click Add, then click OK. 5.In the Delegate Permissions dialog box, you can accept the default permission settings or select custom access levels for Exchange folders. If all your delegate needs is to work with your calendar and meeting requests and responses, the default permission settings are appropriate. If you want to customize your delegate"s access, you'll choose from these access levels: *Reviewer - the delegate can read items in the manager's folder. *Author - the delegate can read and create items, and modify and delete items that he or she creates. For example, a delegate can create task requests and meeting requests directly in the manager's Calendar folder and then send the item on the manager's behalf. The delegate cannot modify or delete something the manager created. *Editor - the delegate can do everything that an Author has permission to do and can modify and delete the items that the manager created. 6.If you leave access to your Calendar set to Editor, you can choose whether or not your delegate automatically will be copied on meeting-related messages, using the checkbox. 7.To notify the delegate of the new permissions, select the Automatically send a message to delegate summarizing these permissions checkbox. 8.The Delegate can see my private items checkbox allows your delegate to see all your private items in all folders where you've granted them any level of access: Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Notes, and Journal folders. You cannot set access to private items in only one folder. 9.Click OK to close the Delegate Permissions dialog box. 10.If, in step 6 above, you chose to have meeting-related messages sent to your delegate automatically, in the Options dialog box you'll see three choices regarding who receives meeting requests and responses addressed to you. *The first radio button routes these messages to your delegate, and sends copies to you *The second radio button routes these messages directly to your delegate and you never see them. Select the option that works best for you, then click OK to close the Options dialog box. If you accepted the default access levels in step 5 above, you're done. If you have granted more access to your Inbox than the default values (for example, any level of access to your Inbox) in step 5 above, you must complete an additional series of steps. 1.In the Navigation Pane, click Mail. 2.Right-click on the line Mailbox - Your Name. Please note: not your Inbox. Mailbox. Really. 3.From the drop-down menu that appears, select Change Sharing Permissions. 4.On the Permissions tab, click Add. 5.From the list, select your delegate, click Add, then click OK. 6.Back on the Permissions tab of the Outlook Today dialog box, in the section labeled Other (near the bottom right), put a checkmark next to Folder visible. 7.Click OK. Change permissions for your delegate 1.On the Tools menu, select Options, then click the Delegates tab. 2.Click the name of the delegate for whom you want to change permissions, and then click Permissions. 3.Change the permissions to the desired level of access for any Outlook folder listed. 4.To send a message to notify the delegate of the changed permissions, select the Automatically send a message to delegate summarizing these permissions checkbox. 5.Click OK to close the Delegate Permissions dialog box. 6.Click OK to close the Options dialog box. Note: If you want copies of meeting requests and responses that you receive to be sent to a delegate, make sure the delegate is assigned Editor (can read, create, and modify items) permission to your Calendar folder, and then select the Delegate receives copies of meeting-related messages sent to me checkbox. Remove permissions for your delegate 1.On the Tools menu, select Options, then click the Delegates tab. 2.Click the name of the delegate for whom you want to change permissions, and then click Remove. 3.Click OK to close the dialog box.

You probably know the below as well but thought I would paste it just in case. As I understand it you cannot assign permissions remotely . In Microsoft Windows Server 2003, open Active Directory Users and Computers. On the View menu, click Advanced Features. Under the domain node, click Users. Open the user account that you want to add Send As permissions to. On the Security tab, click Add. In the Enter the object names to select box, type the display name or user name of the person to whom you want to grant Send As permissions. Multiple users can be added by separating each entry with a semicolon. Click OK. In the Permissions list, click Send As, and then select the Allow check box. Tip To determine whether a delegate has Exchange Send As permissions or only Outlook Delegate Access Send on Behalf permissions, ask the delegate to create a new message and send it to his or her own e-mail account. Make sure the delegate enters the name for the other mailbox in the From box, for example, the manager's name. When the message is received, if both names appear in the From box along with the text "on behalf of," the delegate has only Outlook Delegate Access Send on Behalf permissions. As the person granting permission, you determine the level of access that the delegate has to your folders. You can grant a delegate permission to read items in your folders or to read, create, change, and delete items. By default, when you add a delegate, the delegate has full access to your Calendar and Tasks folders. The delegate can also respond to meeting requests on your behalf. If you want to allow the delegate to see all of the messages in your Inbox, you must grant additional permissions. Instructions for granting permissions are included in the Turn on Delegate Access section. If you grant someone access to your Exchange folders, that person has access to all items in the folders except those marked private. Instructions for allowing delegates to view private items are included in the Choose items that cannot be viewed by a delegate section. Items in subfolders are not available to the delegate unless you change the sharing permissions on the subfolder or you create a new subfolder. New subfolders inherit the folder access permissions of the parent folder. -----Original Message----- From: blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Frank Ventura Sent: Wednesday, 11 November 2009 01:30 To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Sending mail as a delegate in Outlook 2007 Hi David, thanks but I wasn't asking about selecting an account from the accounts drop down menu (alt plus N in Outlook 2003 or alt plus A in Outlook 2007). What I was asking about was sending mail from someone else's mailbox which I have opened as a delegate. When using Exchange 03 or 07 you can open up another mailbox without adding it as an account assuming the owner has assigned you the correct sharing permissions.

I imagine that it is similar in 2007. 1. You need an account set up in Outlook obviously before you can send from it. 2. create the new mail or reply to be in the email you want to send. 3. Press the alt key once . 4. Press control plus tab to move focus to the toolbar. 5 cursor once rightwards and on my outlook 2003 you land on the Accounts button . On 2007 it may be located slightly differently. 6. pres the down cursor arrow and you will be able to select a sending address from all the available accounts in Outlook. 7. Press enter and this is the address that will be inserted in the from field. If there is more than one toolbar in Outlook 2007 you may have to press control tab more than once to cycle to the one you need but I think this first one is the one you normally need. Hope this is what you are looking for.

I have been made a delegate of another user and I can open and read their mailbox (in addition to my own). And if I reply to one of the messages in their Inbox it gets sent with their email address as the "From" field. With JFW how can I compose a new email with the other persons address as the "From" field?
