Delegate Delete Deliveries

Choose the folder

When you delete items from a Mailbox folder of another user where you have deletion privileges, the deleted items go into your Deleted Items folder rather than that of the mailbox owner.

Here are the steps to change that procedure:


Exit and Logoff Outlook

1. Click Start, and then click Run
   
2. Type regedit, and then click OK
   
3. Locate the registry key that is appropriate for your version of Outlook
   For Outlook 2003:
   

   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options\General

   (Use 12.0 for 2007 etc.)
4. Right-click the DelegateWastebasketStyle value, and then click Modify
   
   If the key is not present, use the following steps to create it:
   
   1. Right-click the General folder
      
   2. Point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
      
   3. Type DelegateWastebasketStyle, and then press ENTER
      
      
   4. Change the value data in the Edit DWORD Value dialog box to one of the following values:
      8 = Stores deleted items in your folder
      4 = Stores deleted items in the mailbox owner's folder
      
      NOTE: Make sure that the delegate user has at least Author level rights for the Deleted Items folder of the owner's mailbox.
5. Quit the Registry Editor
   
6. Restart Outlook
