No email notification to delegate

Microsoft Outlook 2003 issue:
We are running MS Outlook 2003 on MS Exchange server 2003, SP2, on Windows 2003 Server Standard.
Assistant Betty has Send As permission to her manager's mailbox.  Is a delegate of his mailbox and calendar with Publishing Editor permissions.  Was receiving email notifications of meeting requests made to her manager routinely without issue.  Then we changed her user logon ID in Active Directory.  Now she does not receive e-mail notifications of meeting requests sent to her manager.  On manager's Tools - Options - Delegates tab, there is a checkmark beside "Send meeting requests and responses only to my delegates, not to me" when her name is highlighted in the delegates list.  But we cannot change this option - it is grayed out even when her name is selected.

After changing her name, we tried removing her Send As permission to her manager's mailbox, then adding her back in, to no avail.

That didn't work either.  We were unable to remove the user at all.  As it turns out, in Active Directory, the delegate was given Send on behalf permission along with full mailbox access.  We removed this access from the delegate and the user no longer appeared as a delegate.  We were then able to add the user back and re-assign the Send on behalf permission.

Things are working now.

Even though your response wasn't the solution, is it still possible to award some points anyway?

Thanks.
I was having the the issue where the delegate options were all greyed out and I couldn't change them. We are now using Office 2010 and the issue is still there. I played around with it and I have found a solution to change the greyed out options.

I went into the delegate options and this particular user has about 10 delegates that are ALL only reviewers to the calendar. I went into the permissions of one of the users (it didn't matter which one) made them and EDITOR of this persons calendar and then checked off the checkbox that reads "Delegate recieves a copy of meeting-related messages sent to me". Once I OK'd out of that permissions window the delegate options were then available. I change the default setting (which was My Delegates Only) to the recommended setting. I then went back into the user I made and editor and put them back to reviewer. When I OK'd out of that window again, all the settings were greyed out again but my changes had stayed on the recommended setting. BAM
