Outlook 2007 lets you give another individual the ability to manage your Inbox. For example, you can have another user schedule your meetings in Outlook, accept or decline meeting requests, or respond to your email on your behalf. Those people with hectic schedules often have assistants who manage their Outlook tasks.

In Outlook 2007, a delegate can do the following:

• Send on behalf of you
• Respond to meeting requests sent to you
• Receive meeting requests responses sent to you
• Compose and send email on your behalf

To delegate another user access in Outlook 2007:

1. Open Outlook.
2. Click the Tools menu and click Options.
3. From the Options window, select the Delegates tab.
4. Click the Add button.
5. Type in the name of the person to serve as the delegate.
6. Click Add.
7. Click OK.
