How to add a Microsoft O365 Email Account without adding a License | Send & Receive from that Email "Account" in Outlook Desktop App
[WARNING: This extra email account(s) can only be accessed on an already existing paid MS user account -- so this is a bit different than the original post.]
A fantastic Microsoft Tech Support Agent just helped me get this working.
O365 Admin > Teams & Groups > Shared Mailboxes > Add > Save > Select new mailbox > Members Edit > Add Members > (select user that will send / receive email in outlook).
O365 Admin > Home > Users > Active Users > Hover over new user > Click Blue Key Icon (Reset Password)
Now add the user into Outlook. Consider creating a rule that all incoming mail is moved to Main Inbox | all outgoing mail is copied (can't move outgoing mail) to Main Sent Items.
