I thought I had set everything up right but....

I went into Tools; Options; Delegates, I added my name to the Delegates list.

Shouldn't I then be able to send emails with "on behalf of" in the FROM box? Is there something special I have to do when I enter the From.

Note: The mailbox I'm using is a group mailbox address for about 10 people. I would like to personalize my responses.

Thanks much,
Trudye
 
Maybe add it as another email box?
Tools-email accounts, more settings-advanced. Add it here.
 
I think the 'on behalf of' comes into play if you are in your account and sending an email from another account to which you are a delegate. Does that make sense?

The answer is "42"
 
Asuming you're wrking in an Exchange environment,
IIRC, you should go to the user's advanced exchange properties (in the servers's users administration) and there, set which users have permissions to send on behalf of this user/mailbox.

I am not sure you can add delegates to the mailbox unless you are it's owner.

hth.
