Sending and receiving e-mail as an assistant

Another important task that assistants often need to perform is to process their managers' e-mail. For example, you probably need to wade through the mountain of e-mail and sort the important messages from those that are less important. What's more, you'll also likely need to send e-mail on your manager's behalf. Before we take a look at the mechanics of sending messages, let's take a quick look at the two commands that you can use to send e-mail as a delegate: Send-on-Behalf and Send As. The right command to use depends on whether the messages you send as an assistant need to appear to come only from the manager or whether they need to appear to come from you on behalf of your manager.

Use Send-on-Behalf when the message needs to appear to have been sent by you with an indication that it was sent on behalf of your manager.

Use Send As when the message needs to appear to be directly from your manager.

HideSend e-mail by using Send As

When you are granted Send As permissions on a mailbox, messages that you send from the mailbox appear to come from the mailbox owner. So if you send a message from your manager's mailbox, that message appears to the recipient to come from the manager, not from you. Configuring Send As permissions on a mailbox must be done by the Exchange Server administrator — it can't be configured in Outlook.
