Before you can become a delegate, another person must grant you delegate access to a Microsoft Exchange account. You may receive an email notifying you that you have been granted delegate access to someone's calendar, contacts, or email. To access the items for which you are a delegate, you must add the person who granted you access to your Open these additional mailboxes list. When you want to stop being a delegate for someone, you need to remove the person from the list.
