This is a fairly common one, but I can't seem to locate it. I've had several
bosses ask me to do this while they're out.

Is there any way to turn on Out of Office Assistant for someone that you're
a delegate for, from YOUR inbox? In each instance, the boss wants to turn it
on, but he's already travelling when he calls to ask, and his machine is
turned off. But even when I activate OOA from his inbox, on MY machine, it
turns it on for me. Silly question, but very frustrating.

Thanks for any input.
 
No, but have you tried telling your boss to activate it himself using OWA?
