How to Send on behalf / Send as in Exchange 2010

Send on behalf and Send as are quite similar.

Send on behalf will permit a user to send e-mails as another user, but it will show that it was send by administrator@aurelp.com on behalf of aurel.proorocu@aurelp.com ( the case in this example ).

Send as will give a user ( administrator@aurelp.com ) the permission to send mail as another user ( aurel.proorocu@aurelp.com ). In this case the recipient will see only aurel@aurelp.com in the from field. He will never know that X send that e-mail
