Hi,
yes, you can do it, you have to assign 'send as' permission to your user in the specified distribution group.
This is a Powershell command let you do this work perfectly:
Add-ADPermission YourDistributionGroup -ExtendedRights Send-As -user YourUser

Hi Xingtai2000,
"send as" is a AD related permission, we can use cmdlt which we need to run from Exchange Managment Shell.
You can try to install Exchange management tool on windows xp.
Supported Operating Systems: Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 R2 (32-Bit x86), Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows XP Service Pack 3
