Exchange/Outlook 2003: Give another user send as rights from Active directory

Problem: What if one user (call her Sally) needs to be able to send mail as another user (call him Bob). Simply giving Sally full mailbox rights will not work. You will get a bounce back email saying "you do not have permission to send to this recipient." But it can be done.

Easy answer: Go to the Exchange General tab for the user for which you want to assign send as rights(Bob). Click on Delivery Options.

Next to the send on behalf window click add and enter Sally’s user name.

Ok your way back out and you’re done.
