Connect to Shared Mailbox (Mac) - Office 2024/365

So, first off, you have to know which "mode" you're in. What you have to do to connect to a shared mailbox differs between Legacy mode and "New" Mode.

If you go to the Outlook menu, you'll see this:

To add in New Outlook:

Go to the Outlook menu < Settings.

Click Accounts.

To the right, it'll have your Chicagobooth.edu email address, and a button that says Default. Click the arrow to the right.

Click the button next to Delegates and Sharing.

Click the Shared With Me tab, and click the plus sign t search the Global Address List for the person or group whose mailbox you have been given access to. After you're done, click OK; it will take a while for the mailbox to show up in your left pane, but it will eventually.
