Assigning a Delegate to Handle E-Mail and Appointments
10. Click OK.
If you select the Automatically Send a Message to Delegate Summarizing
These Permissions option in Step 6, your delegate gets an e-mail letting
him know his duties and the permission levels you set. Your delegate
can now take over the tasks (replying to meeting requests, for example)
that you’ve assigned.
See “Managing Someone Else’s E-Mail and Calendar,” later in this chapter, for
help with what to do if you’ve been made someone else’s delegate.
Changing a delegate’s permission levels
To change what a delegate can do for you, follow these steps:
1. Click the File tab, to display Backstage, and select Info from the list on
the left.
The Account Information options appear on the right.
2. Click the Account Settings button, and then select Delegate Access
from the drop-down menu that appears.
The Delegates dialog box jumps up. (Refer to Figure 1-12.)
3. Select the delegate you want to change and click the Permissions button.
The Delegate Permissions dialog box peeks out (see Figure 1-13).
4. To change the access level for one of your Outlook modules, such as
Contacts or the Calendar, make a selection from the appropriate drop-
down list.
Your options include Editor, Author, Reviewer, or None. (For more on
the mechanics of setting permission levels, see the “Assigning a del-
egate” section, earlier in this chapter.)
