Hi
I was wondering if it was possible to do the following and where I would do it, (Outlook '03 or Exchange '03):

When a user, (userX) has Send As permissions for another user, (userY) and sends a email as user, I want to store the sent mail in the sent items of userY rather than userX's sent items.

Is this possible to configure? How would it be best done?

I would be grateful for any suggestions.
Regards,
chuck.

Mr. Sweetchuck,

It's been quite some time since you posted your issue so I'm assuming you figured it out or moved on. However, I'm going to add a comment in case someone else stumbles accross this thread. Our company handles your scenario by using a home grown Outlook Addin to Bcc the other user (userY) then we have a rule in userY's mailbox to move all messages to Sent Items if from userX "except if my name is in the To or Cc box". In other words, if userY is Bcc'd from userX, the message is moved to Sent Items. In this case, the message will actually be in the Sent Items folder for both userX and UserY. I believe there is a 3rd party component you can install to take care of this but our way works fine for us.
