Workarounds for delegate mailboxes If this is a mailbox for which you only have limited access (for instance, only access to the Calendar, Contacts and Inbox folder) rather than full access, then you are a bit out of luck. I created a department shared mailbox in exh 2010, now i need to add it to the users' outlook. The trouble i have is these users are on 3 different sites, all connected by MPLS, and on different subnets of the network. They are also running different versions of outlook, including 2003, 2010, and 2016.

I’ve been granted delegate access to someone’s mailbox which is located on our Exchange server.

When I do a search to shared mailbox (added via Auto-Mapping), the search scope is 'All mailboxes' and with this scope, no results are shown because shared mailbox is not included in search with this scope. But when I manually change the scope to 'Current folder', I can search shared mailbox. The link is a good source for Outlook search. Shared mailboxes take some time to appear in the Outlook folder pane. However, if it doesn’t work for you, then you can add it manually by following the below steps: Start MS Outlook and go to the File tab. Click Account Settings, and then select Account Settings from the menu.

However, when I try to add it in the usual way via the Exchange account settings, I found that the option to add an additional mailbox is greyed out.

Why is this option greyed out and how can I add this delegate mailbox to Outlook after all?

It sounds like you have more than 1 Exchange account configured in your mail profile then.

The option to add additional mailboxes to an Exchange account is only available for the Exchange account that is set as your default (primary) account.

Checking the default mail account and opening additional mailboxes

To see which mail account is set as the primary use:
File-> Account Settings-> Account Settings…-> tab E-mail

To get to the “Open these additional mailboxes” list, double click on the Exchange account, click on the More Options… button and then select the Advanced tab.


For additional Exchange accounts in a mail profile,
adding shared mailboxes is not supported.

Workaround for mailboxes you have Full Access Permissions

If you have full access to this shared mailbox, then you could add it as yet another Exchange account to your mail profile.

When using Auto Account Setup or manually configure the Exchange account, the initial password that you configure is irrelevant. Upon accessing the mailbox, you’ll get prompted again for the username and password and in that case, simply provide your own credentials (which also used for your own mailbox in that Exchange environment.

Workarounds for delegate mailboxes

If this is a mailbox for which you only have limited access (for instance, only access to the Calendar, Contacts and Inbox folder) rather than full access, then you are a bit out of luck. Workarounds in this case are;

  • Recreate the mail profile but this time use the Exchange account for which you want to add additional mailboxes as the first account.
  • Create an additional mail profile for this Exchange account.
  • Use the “Open Other User’s Folder” method instead (only applies to the default Inbox, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes or Journal folder).
    • Outlook 2010
      File-> Open-> Other User’s Folder
    • Outlook 2013 / 2016 / 2019 / Microsoft 365
      File-> Open & Export-> Other User’s Folder
  • Request Exchange level Full Access Permissions to the mailbox. The mailbox owner can’t do this him- or herself. He or she must make a request for this to your Exchange administrator.
