Adding a delegate in Outlook means someone else can have the capabilities to view and respond to emails on your behalf, as well as schedule meeting appoints for you in your calendar.
You also may have noticed you're not receiving invites to meetings, so this can be changed by going to these settings.
To set/remove a delegate in Outlook, follow these steps.
From the main Outlook screen, click on File in the top left hand corner
Click on Account Settings, then click Delegate Access
Click Add to select a new delegate or select a name to edit the Permissions.
(Note: If you want to remove all Delegate Access permissions, don't select Permissions but instead select Remove and skip the rest of these steps.)
Begin typing the person's name, click on their name when it shows, then click Add. Click OK when finished.
Choose the level of access your delegate should have. Click OK when finished setting permissions.
Note: If you want copies of meeting requests and responses that you receive to be sent to a delegate, ensure that the delegate is assigned Editor (can read, create, and modify items) permission to your Calendar folder, and then select the Delegate receives copies of meeting-related messages sent to me check box.
Decide what will happen to meeting requests and click ok.
