Managing Someone Else’s E-Mail and Calendar
 4. In the From box, type the name of the person for which you’re creat-
ing the e-mail .
    Alternatively, click the From button and select the name from the Choose 
Sender dialog box by selecting a name from the list and clicking OK. See 
the foreground of Figure 1-18. After you click OK, you’re returned to the 
Send From Other E-Mail Address dialog box. Yes, you can choose any 
name from this list, and you may even think you’re sending a message 
as that person. But if you try to send a message as someone who hasn’t 
given you permission to do so, Exchange will send you back a nasty letter 
scolding you. And there’ll be an audit trail on the admin’s system as well.
Figure 1-18: 
Sending an 
e-mail that’s 
not from 
you.
 5. Address the e-mail, type a subject in the Subject text box, and enter 
your message (or rather, your colleague’s message) in that big white 
text box at the bottom of the form.
    If you need help creating the e-mail, see Book II, Chapter 1.
 6. When you finish creating the e-mail, click Send.
    If you were very explicit in your e-mail, then the recipient will know 
that you sent the e-mail, but he or she also knows that the message was 
ultimately from someone else. Exchange gives away the secret: Your 
colleague’s name automatically appears in the From text box. (Refer to 
Figure 1-19.)
