7. In the Delegate Permissions dialog box, select the appropriate level of access for each category from the provided dropdown list.
   • To send a message to notify the delegate of the changed permissions, check Automatically send a message to delegate summarizing these permissions.
   • If you want, check Delegate can see my private items.
     • Important: This setting affects all Exchange folders. This includes all Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Notes, and Journal folders. There is no way to grant access to private items in only specified folders.
