Uising OWA to access other user's mailboxes

Does OWA allow users to access other mailboxes that they have been given
permission to view or manage?

If not, is there a way to allow a user who's connecting remotely to login to
OWA as another user?

Reply to others: However, it seems to me I came across a VBScript somewhere
that could be used so when OWA is started you could force a userid/password
prompt to appear. Yes? No?

I think if you just type a user name into the address bar in IE it will
force the userid prompt.
i.e. <servername>/exchange/<username>
It doesn't go directly to the specified user, but it does force the prompt.
(At least it does on our W98 workstations.)

Hi Kevin -

If OWA is available to external users, another option is to use the FQDN of
your SBS (ie mail.mycompany.com/exchange). ISA will block the integrated
Windows logon info, so users will be prompted for username / password.
