Adding Delegates to drop down folder lists

[Leslie]

In previous versions of Outlook such as 2000. A person
who has delegate rights could add the person they work for
to thier folder list. This allowed you to know when new
messages came in, without having to go to file, open other
users' folders. I accomplished this by going to: Tools,
Services, properties and clicking on the Advanced tab.
This option seems to be missing in the 2003 version.

Is there something that I missed? Is it now located in
another place. We are using Exchange Server.

Thanks

To add the other user's mailbox to your folder list:

1) on the "host" outlook, right click on the top level folder of the
mailbox, and grant the other user at least Reviewer rights. Add permissions
as needed to any subfolders.
2) On the "client" computer's outlook, go to tools, email accounts, view
modify, click change on the Exchange account, more settings, advanced tab,
and add the 'host' mailbox there.

Does this help?
