Opening additional mailboxes

As an alternative to these methods, you can add another Exchange account by using additional mailboxes credentials. This method is not recognized as adding a shared mailbox, because you are adding the additional account by using its own credentials. To open the additional Exchange account, follow these steps:

  1. On the Tools menu, click Accounts.
  2. Click the plus sign and then click New Account to add an additional Exchange account.
  3. In the E-mail address field, enter the email address of the shared mailbox.
  4. Under Authentication, enter the credentials for the shared mailbox.
