Hi, I’m having difficulty with Exchange 2010’s RBAC. I’ve created a group called Exchange Recipient Management and added to the Recipient Management role group. The members of Exchange Recipient Management can now do everything they need to with the exception of managing send as permissions. Members of this group also have full permissions on the AD user objects they should be managing. I’ve read http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd638132.aspx and noted under Recipient Provisioning Permissions the feature ‘send as’ requires Recipient Management permissions, so it should just work right? The send as option doesn’t appear as an option so I can only assume either the documentation is wrong or they also need to be in Organization Management (which scares me!) What have I missed? Kind Regards, John

Sounds like maybe you need to add the "Send on behalf of" right for those users. Starting in 2007 the Send as right seems to have lost it's functionality somewhat, and so adding the "Send on behalf of" right populates the mailbox with these users having delegate access. Good Luck.

Hi, I'm trying to setup helpdesk users to be able to give send as permissions. So in EMC when you have a mailbox selected the "Manage Send As Pemission .." Action does not appear even though they are in a role which based on the documentation should give them that ability. Kind Regards, John

I solved it! I need to add "Active Directory Permissions" to the role group, I created a new group to save modifying the default one. I've copied the code below incase anyone else finds it useful Vote as helpful if it's useful ;o) $RG = Get-RoleGroup "Recipient Management" New-RoleGroup "Recipient Management WC" -roles $RG.roles Set-RoleGroup "Recipient Management WC" -ManagedBy $rg.ManagedBy New-ManagementRoleAssignment -securitygroup "Recipient Management WC" -role "Active Directory Permissions"
