OL97: Private Items Are Viewable by Non-Outlook Delegates

Article ID: 169871

Article Last Modified on 1/19/2007



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Outlook 97 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q169871


SYMPTOMS

Items marked Private in Microsoft Outlook are viewable by a delegate who uses a mail client other than Outlook, such as the Microsoft Exchange client. However, delegates using Outlook cannot view private messages.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design. Outlook items are only private to other Outlook users.

WORKAROUND

Assign only Outlook users as your delegates.
