Hi John, When using Microsoft Exchange as your mail server one mailbox
owner can delegate another user to access their Inbox (and any other
folder ie contacts, calendar etc) as a delegate. What access is granted
is determined by the sharing permissions set by the owner of that
folder. This has nothing to do with adding another account to Outlook. I
have successfully opened one of my colleagues mail folders as a delegate
and can easily send mail on their behalf if I reply to a message.
However I can't seem to figure out how to compose a new message, on
their behalf, with JFW.

PS Here is what the help says about delegation. It tells you how to
delegate (which I have figured out) but doesn't really hint at how you
can send on behalf of someone with a keyboard command.
Outlook 2003 Delegating Access
Sharing verses Delegating
Delegating - Granting an individual delegate rights to an Outlook folder
(i.e., Inbox, Calendar, Contacts...), gives the individual full rights
to edit the contents of the folder. Including sending email messages on
your behalf.
Sharing - Granting an individual shared permissions to an Outlook folder
(i.e., Inbox, Calendar, Contacts...), gives the individual one of the
following permission level for accessing and modifying the contents of
the folder:
Owner Create, read, modify, and delete all items and files, and create
subfolders. As the folder owner, you can change the permission levels
others have for the folder. (Does not apply to delegates.)
Publishing Editor Create, read, modify, and delete all items and
files, and create subfolders. (Does not apply to delegates.)
Editor Create, read, modify, and delete all items and files.
Publishing Author Create and read items and files, create
subfolders, and modify and delete items and files you create. (Does not
apply to delegates.)
Author Create and read items and files, and modify and delete items and
files you create.
Contributor Create items and files only. The contents of the folder
do not appear. (Does not apply to delegates.)
Reviewer Read items and files only.
Custom Perform activities defined by the folder owner. (Does not apply
to delegates.)
None You have no permission. You can't open the folder.
Granting Delegate Permission
1. Launch Microsoft Outlook.
2. From the Inbox, Select Tools, then Options.
3. The Options window will appear. Click the Delegates tab.
4. On the Delegates panel, click Add.
5. In the Add Users window, locate the person you wish to give
permissions to.
6. Select the name and click the Add button. Then click OK.
The Delegate Permissions window will now appear. You will use this
window to select the folder(s) you will grant the delegate permission to
access.
7. To allow the delegate to read and create items for a folder,
expand the drop-down field that is next to the folder. Then select
Author (can read and create items).
Note: You may also choose other options for the user as well.
* Reviewer - they can only read the items.
* Author - they can read and create items.
* Editor - they can read, create, and modify items.
8. Click OK when finished.
9. Click Apply
10. Then Ok

Hi David and others,
Is this the same as pressing alt plus n and selecting accounts that way;
I'm
not clear on what delegate means in this context.

This may not be what you want but here is a suggestion anyway that works
in
Outlook 2003. 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.
Regards
David Griffith

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Sending mail as a delegate in Outlook 2007
Hello all, I am using Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2003. 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?
Thank you
Frank Ventura
