Shared Mailbox and Archive: Q & A

  • 發行項

 

Had a chat with Rui Silva on Shared Mailboxes, and an interesting question came up…:-)

Question =

can a user, who has been given Full Mailbox access permissions to a Shared Mailbox, open that Shared Mailbox its Archive in Exchange 2010 RTM?

Answer =

Yes, using Microsoft Office Outlook 2010

Time to Test :-)

I have created a new Shared Mailbox, called Info.

I have given a mailbox-enabled user called User4, Full Mailbox Access to that shared mailbox. And I have enabled an Online Archive for that Shared Mailbox.

Using OWA, user 4 can open the Shared Mailbox

But User 4 does not see the Archive of the Shared Mailbox!

Using Microsoft Office Outlook 2010, User 4 can open the Shared Mailbox Info as an additional mailbox.

And the online Archive is visible…

and Accessible!

    This does not seem to work in Outlook 2013. Is there a difference in how the Outlook versions behave?

    What if we do NOT want to show the online archive for the shared mailbox, only the normal mailbox? If I try to remove permissions using "get-mailbox -archive sharedmailbox | get-mailboxpermissions | remove-mailboxpermissions -user1", it will remove permissions for the whole mailbox, not only the archive...

    Also not seeing a screenshot for how you add mailbox the next step is shown with the mailbox name type in but not which menu or option was clicked first. I also suspect that our company structure has this disabled

    Can this be done if using Exchange 2013. I can see my folder and my folders' archive, I can see the shared folders but not the shared folders archive in Outlook 2013 (I can see it using the Outlook Web Ap).
