SUMMARY
With the Microsoft Exchange client, it is possible to grant other users the
right to access your inbox.
MORE INFORMATION
To grant other users access to your inbox:
On your computer:
- Select the Mailbox-<username> folder to highlight it.
- On the File menu, select Properties, or right-click and select
Properties.
- On the Permission tab, click Add in the Name/Role list and add the
desired user.
NOTE: Setting the Default user will give everyone on the Microsoft Exchange
server access to your folders.
- After selecting the user from the address list, click Add and
then click OK to accept the addition.
- Now select the desired Permission Roles for that user.
You have to do this for each level of folders from the top level
(usually the Mailbox-<username>) to the bottom-level folder, that is,
any subfolders under Mailbox.
On the computer of the person you are giving access to:
- On Tools menu, click Services. Select the Microsoft Exchange Server
Information service and click Properties.
- Go to the Advanced tab and click Add.
- Type either the e-mail alias name or the user's Display Name.
- Click OK to return to the mailbox.
Access to your mailbox now appears in the listed available folders.
The person you are giving access to may get the following error message
when trying to open or access the desired folder:
The set of folders could not be opened. You do not have sufficient
permission to perform this operation on this object. See the folder
contact or your system administrator.
You probably have not given that user the correct permission to access your
folder. Make sure you have given the correct permission to all levels of
folders above the desired folder.
