    Really, really. Have you had any luck sending via SMTP from a shared mailbox?

      pdestefanis, please define "sending via SMTP from a shared mailbox".

      I thought any mailbox can send externally only using SMTP protocol.  Are you disagree?

        Hello Victor_Ivanidze ,

        Yes, any mailbox can send, and the servers will use SMTP, but what you will not be able to do with a shared mailbox is to use it to send from another system like a printer, your NMS, etc.

        For that you will need to use a user (paid!) mailbox.

        My understanding is that was the intent of the OP.

        Best,
        Pablo
