1. Adding a delegate
From the Entourage menu, click
[Tools] and then
[Accounts...] which will bring up the Accounts
screen.
You will need to edit your Oxford Nexus account's settings so make sure that you
choose the correct account and double-click the account name to bring up the
Edit Account screen. On this screen click the
Delegate tab.
In the upper half of the window labeled "My delegates" Click the
Add... button to bring up the Select User
screen: Type in all or part of the name of the person you want to add as a delegate, and
click the
Find to search. In the resulting list, click on the
correct name and then click OK to continue.
A new screen will open, where you can set their permissions: Set your desired permission levels for each of the features, and click
OK. You will now return to the list of delegates, with the
new person showing: Click OK to complete the process. You can change
their permissions at a later date by returning to this screen, clicking on their
name, and then clicking Set Permissions or
Remove. Please note that if you are not delegating access to all your
email folders, delegates may not be able to see the folders that you have
delegated unless you make the containing folder visible. To do this:
- Select the Mail view in Entourage by selecting the Mail icon in the top menu bar
- Control-click on your Oxford Nexus mailbox (this will usually be at
the top of the list of email folders in the left hand Mail pane) and
select
Sharingfrom the menu. - When the
Folder Propertieswindow opens, select thePermissions tab - If the delegate is not in the list of names displayed, click
Addand select the user from the list. - Once the delegate is listed, click on their name and then tick the box
saying
Folder Visible
- Click
OKto complete.
The delegate can now see your list of mailboxes, but can only access (read messages, reply, etc) the folder(s) that you specifically delegated earlier on.
