To Proxy Another User's Account:

Before you can act as a proxy for someone, that person must give you proxy rights in his or her Access List in Options. The amount of access you have depends on the rights you have been given.

  2. Click the name of the person whose Mailbox you want to access.
  3. Click OK.
  4. When you have finished your work in the other person's Mailbox, click the folder list header drop-down list, click your own name to return to your Mailbox.
