How to allow sending notification on behalf of another person
Updated in 2022.1
In order to allow Alloy Discovery to send notifications on behalf of a user, that user must grant Send On Behalf permission to the Microsoft Exchange or Exchange Online account you are using for sending notifications in Alloy Discovery. Notification recipients will see both the sender address and the Microsoft account address in the From line, as follows: From: Mailbox <Microsoft Exchange address> on behalf of Mailbox <person’s address>.
Send On Behalf permissions can be granted using Microsoft Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010, Outlook 2013, Outlook 2016, Outlook 2019, or Outlook for Microsoft 365, via Delegate Access.
