This is assuming you are utilizing Microsoft Outlook.
The IMAP protocol displays current (live so to say) items within a mailbox, much like a browser displays a web page. The IMAP protocol also takes actions, read, mark unread, delete, move, on a mailbox.

Therefor i cannot login into the tenant account or assign licenses. When logging into outlook webmail and selecting that is a company account i get an error telling me that no license is assigned. Which,, i think, is another indicator of that problem.
