The assistant to one of our executives has permissions on and access to his outlook inbox and calendar in her own outlook (through "open/other user's folder"). Can I set it up so that she can also get to these two folders when she comes into her Outlook through OWA from outside our system? If do, detailed step-by-step please.

You've probably already found out how to do this. but just in case you havent:

1.
Open Active Directory Users and Computers on your exchange server. From the View menu, choose Advanced Features

2. Find the executive's object in Active Directory. Go to properties. Choose the Security tab (only available if Advanced Features is turned on). Add the assistant to the list of authenticated users. For the assistant tick to allow the "Send As" permission.

3. Get the assistant to log into her owa as she normally would. Once the page has loaded, get the assistant to add the executive's username at the end of the url to look like e.g.
http://owa..com/exchange/
