In Microsoft Outlook, if I've delegated viewing privileges, how do I keep email messages private?

If you've delegated Inbox access to another person in Microsoft Outlook, to send a private message:

  1. Create a new email message in Outlook.

  2. In Outlook 2010, click the Options tab. In the lower right-hand corner of the "More Options" section, click the arrow.

    In Outlook 2007, on the Message Ribbon, in the lower right corner of the Options group, click the Options Dialog Box Launcher. This opens the Message Options dialog box.

    In Outlook 2003, on the toolbar, click Options.

  3. In the drop-down list under "Sensitivity", select Private.

Private objects can be seen only by the account owner, not by delegates.

By default, a delegate gets the role of Editor only on calendar and task folders, and cannot see anything in the Inbox unless (in Outlook 2010 or 2007) Delegate can see my private items is checked. Also, a delegate who has been given an Owner role can see private objects such as mail messages, calendar appointments, task items, or contact items. Because of this, you should not delegate more permissions than necessary.
