How do I set up permissions for one person on a Windows 2003 Server?

We have one server dedicated for emergency management that has an Exchange server. The director has a secondary profile in Outlook to which he receives email from this server. I have set up Outlook with the server name and the email account on the server which is resolved by DNS, but then it asks for a username and password.

How do I set the permissions on the server so that Outlook doesn't automatically ask for a username and password?
 
Is that server part of the same domain as his AD account?

Sorry, I just found out it's not.
 
Thats why you are prompted.

So how do I get it to stop prompting for the password?

This is a new computer that I am setting up. He has the same setup on the old computer and it doesn't prompt for the username and password when he selects that Outlook profile. And I can't figure out how it was done before. Does it store the username and password internally? Or what do I have to do to get the prompts to stop?
