Probably a bit late for your purposes but might help someone else with the same problem:-
Error message when trying to add delegate access to a calendar:-
The Delegates settings were not saved correctly. Unable to activate send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
In order to resolve this you need to give Write Personal Information permission to the SELF account on the user who is trying to add the delegate. To do this, follow these steps:-
Connect to your mail server. Open Active Directory Users and Computers, and then click Advanced Features if it is not already selected on the View menu. Expand your domain, and then locate the user’s Organisational Unit (OU). In the right pane, right-click the user who is experiencing the delegate issue, and then click Properties. Click the Security tab, locate the SELF account, and then click Write Personal Information . Make sure the Write permissions check box is selected, and then click OK. Voila!!
I realize this is an old thread but thought I'd add my 2 cents. I had a user that got this error as well. When watching the user go to the delegate tab & add a user I noticed that there was an entry already in their delegate list that was showing up as a legacyExchangeDN path (/o=Organigation Name/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients/cn=jsmith). Jsmith is no longer an employee & that account has long been deleted. I highlighted that & clicked Remove & Apply. Then had the user try to add the delgate & it worked.
