I know how to send on behalf of another user, but is there a way to actually send as another user? I am using Outlook 2000 with Exchange Server 2000. Any help would be appreciated. Email me if you need additional info.

Most businesses setup their exchange server so that people are prevented from sending as another user. However, with the user login and password, it can be done. Also it can be done on an abandoned workstation (if there's no screen saver/passwordd enabled). And administrators can do this. It's also possible that a person's e-mail was spoofed and this can be done "outside" an organization.

Look up e-mail spoofing in any search engine.

That isn't exactly the answer I was looking for. The situation is this: Our CEO has an assistant that needs to be able to send email from him. I can give the assistant all the rights on his mailbox, but it will still only let her send on his behalf.Is there a way that she can open her mailbox and his mailbox on the same machine and send as either herself or him??

We figured it out. You have to enable "view advanced features" from active directory users and computers and then go to the properties of the user you want to "share out" and add permissions for the user to "send as" from the security tab. Thanks for trying though and you still get the points!
