Hi Jason

To set send as permissions to a group you can use Active Directory Users And Computers. Follow these steps

1. On a computer that is running Exchange, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.

2. In Active Directory Users and Computers, on the View menu, click Advanced Features.

3. Expand the domain node, and then click Users.

4. In the details pane, right-click the user for which you want to grant the Send As permission, and then click Properties.

5. In <User> Properties, on the Security tab, click Advanced.

6. In Advanced Security Settings for <User>, click Add.

7. In the Enter the object name to select box, type the name of the mailbox user or the group to which you want to grant the Send As permission, and then click Check Name to verify the user or group. Click OK.

8. In Permission Entry for <User>, in the Apply onto list, select This object only.

9. In the Permissions list, locate Send As, and then select the Allow check box.

10. Click OK to close the dialog boxes.

There is a much easier way in Exchange 2007 . You did not mention if you have SP1 installed, if you do not I suggest you do so as soon as possible.

In the SP1 console, select recipient configuration and then mailboxes. You can select one mailbox at a time in the console and then choose “manage send as permissions” in the right-hand pane. Add the security group you want to grant send as permissions.

For a bulk operation use the powershell. You can pipe the users and add send as permissions in bulk.

get-mailbox -identity “yourmailservername” | Add-ADPermission –ExtendedRights “Send As” -group “yoursecuritygroupname”

If this is not quite right, someone correct the script please. I have not had to bulk anable send as permissions yet in exchange 2007, but I have done other bulk operations. This should do the trick for you.
