I think the reason they want to login as the user is to see what rules are in place (i dont think you can see the rules for a second mailbox if added to the origian profile)
There is a rule as I was able to run Get-InboxRule -Mailbox and see it, but I dont know what the rule actually entails From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] unable to add second profile & account Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 14:30:35 +0000 That’s exactly what I get if I try that way myself since 2013, which is how I always connected as an admin on 2007. I even get that if I manually fill in all of the values just like what autodiscover would do (since you’re manually creating a profile and not using autodiscover in this case). For admin tasks, I’ve had to create a default profile connected to the admin account and then change the connected username in the profile when I need to access various mailboxes. I have also had a few little quirks with that under certain circumstances. If you find something to fix, I’d love to know. For an end user with Outlook, the mailbox you’ve granted them access to should auto-add to their current profile. If they press ctrl + F6 to put their view into folder list view, the mailbox should be there. When you remove access, it will disappear. If it doesn’t auto-add, you can have them add it to their profile as an additional mailbox under properties, e-mail accounts, change, more settings, advanced tab (add mailbox here). -Bonnie From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of J- P Sent: Monday, February 09, 2015 8:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] unable to add second profile & account Great question, didn't dawn on me since there has never been any problems for anyone connecting -(i guess no one has ever tried to add another outlook profile/account ) guess i'll look at that next Jean-Paul Natola From: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Exchange] unable to add second profile & account Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2015 19:23:25 -0800 To: [email protected] Autodiscover works the same as before. Has the internal autodiscover been verified in this environment?
