There's required the parent folder to be able to traverse the folder structure, where you instruct evolution-ews to use the Inbox as the parent, thus it doesn't see the sibling folders. > Since I do not get the Sent folder, I am not able to send/reply to > emails and have the messages stored in the Sent folder of the shared > mailbox, Do you expect two Sent folders? The only way I can think of, according to your description, is that there will be some Outgoing filter, which will copy messages to the foreign Sent folder when certain conditions are met. You'll still be the sender, not the shared mailbox. Unless you use impersonation. You didn't say so though. > any way to accomplish this? As I said earlier, you only need to know the ID of the folder. Let someone whom can login to the shared mailbox open it in Evolution with evolution-ews. Then right-click respective folders and pick "Permissions..." (this works for all kinds, not only mails, thus also for calendars, books,...) and see at the top the "Folder ID" part. You can click into it and copy it somewhere (note it's a very long base64- encoded blob, thus make sure you copy it whole). Then use this Folder ID in the "Subscribe to folder of other user" dialog, instead of the Inbox folder (users can write anything there, not only select predefined values from the combo), then continue as before. Maybe there's a way to get such folder ID from other clients too, but I never tried it myself. The folder ID should also come from the EWS protocol; for example that shown with evolution-mapi doesn't work with evolution-ews and vice versa.

I only get the Inbox and not the other folders at the same level as Inbox (like Sent, etc). Is that correct or should I be able to see the other folders also (i.e. this is not subfolders of the inbox)? Since I do not get the Sent folder, I am not able to send/reply to emails and have the messages stored in the Sent folder of the shared mailbox, any way to accomplish this?
