Hi MaximeViret 

 

Did the user check also OWA? 

 

Log in to your mailbox by using Outlook on the Web.
Right-click your name in the folder list, and then click Add shared folder.
In the Add shared folder dialog box, type the name of the mailbox that you have been provided access to, and then click Add.
The primary mailbox and archive mailbox appear in Outlook in the web folder list.

 

Hope this helps!

Did the user check also OWA? I am an admin, my mailbox has been migrated to 365. I gave myself full-access rights to a On-Premise-local-archive-enabled-user.  It has been my understanding that to access an on-premise user(with archive), a cloud user must use the  "open another mailbox" menu option by clicking their initials in the top right corner of outlook.office.com. This will then direct the cloud user to an on-premise instance of OWA, something line https://domain.com/owa. 

 

Log in to your mailbox by using Outlook on the Web.
Right-click your name in the folder list, and then click Add shared folder. This does not work per above explanation. Cute attempt though 


In the Add shared folder dialog box, type the name of the mailbox that you have been provided access to, and then click Add. For shoots and giggles, I tried anyways. Yea....nooooo! From cloud instance of OWA outlook.office.com, I right clicked name, selected "Add Shared Folder" and added the on-premise-local-archive-enabled-user which I have full access to. Unsurprisingly, I  received the error "you might not have permission to perform this access" 


The primary mailbox and archive mailbox appear in Outlook in the web folder list. Nope, this does not work

 

Outside of OWA outlook.online.com, my Outlook desktop client, accessing my cloud based mailbox, does show the on-premise user which I have full access to. However I cannot see the on-premise users local on-premise archive. 

 

Please reread initial situation provided by MaximeViret and provide solution for cloud users to view on-premise users archive.
