Windows 10: Can you add shared mailboxes in Windows 10 Mail App

We are wanting to add multiple shared mailboxes in the Windows 10 Mail App however i haven't found how to do this. I know you can in Office 365 Mail but not the App. Has this feature been added yet?

:)

We appreciate the additional information that you have provided. If you're referring to the Mail app for Windows 10, the feature is not yet available. However, the feature can be accessed using the Outlook 2016 application and the Outlook Web app.

We suggest using the recommended apps stated to best use the feature for shared mailboxes. Kindly check this link

Open and use a shared mailbox in Outlook Web App for further details in using the feature in the Outlook Web app.

Keep us posted.

Hi Jomel,

The issue is with the mail/outlook app that comes with Windows 10. We have machines that do not have the resources to run the traditional Office suite.

The built in mail application does not seem to provide a way to access shared mailboxes.

Is there a way to access shared mailboxes using the built in Mail application?

(the permissions are correct on the mailbox)

Thanks

Nick
