In Outlook, you may give permission to others to access your e-mail folders. The following is an example of how user A allows user B to open the 'Inbox' folder of user A.
In user A's account, assign permissions to user B
- Login using Outlook as user A.
- In the Folder list, right-click A's Mailbox folder and select Properties
- Click the Permissions tab.
- Click on the Add button.
- Select the name of User B from the list shown in the left panel and click Add. Click OK when finished.
- Back to the previous window, select the name of user B under the Name field.
- Under Permissions, either choose a role or check appropriate permissions.
- Click OK.
- Right-click A's Inbox folder and select Properties.
- Repeat the steps from 2 to 8.
In user B's account, open the mailbox of user A
- Login using Outlook as user B.
- On the Tools menu, choose Services.
- Click Microsoft Exchange Server in the Services list, and click Properties.
- On the Advanced tab, click Add.
- Type the e-mail account name of user A in Add Mailbox.
- Click OK.
Note: By doing the above, user B can only open Inbox of user A. If user B needs to open other mail folders of user A, user A has to assign the appropriate permissions to user B for each folder one by one.
