Sending E-mail for Someone Else
(Send on Behalf of mailbox owner)
If you need to send E-mails out on behalf of someone else on the From:
line (e.g. your boss) there are a couple methods which will work.
- If you have Full Mailbox Access permissions on their mailbox
(aka "super-delegate").
- Once you have already been given Full Mailbox Access (aka
"super-delegate") as described
here, you need to open that
mailbox by listing it as an additional mailbox as part of your
Outlook folder tree. Then, it's as simple as displaying the From: field and typing the other person's name.
- In the e-mail compose window:
- Select View menu;
- Select From Field;
- Now you can type the other person's name
on the From line;
- The e-mail will arrive looking just as if the
other person sent it.
- If you only need Partial Mailbox
access on their mailbox (aka "ordinary-delegate").
- If you only need partial mailbox access, then you'll need the other
person to make you a Delegate on their e-mail.
Please ask the other person to grant you Delegate access
from his/her Outlook client.
Here's a description and
instructions on how to do this. - After you are listed as a Delegate on their Inbox you will be
able to send e-mails On Behalf Of them. In the e-mail compose
window:
- Select View menu;
- Select From Field;
- Now you can type the other person's name on the From line;
- The e-mail will arrive at the destination with a From address
looking something like this: Your Name [on behalf of His/her Name].
