Nope. Full Access means Full access. Period.

Apr 11, 2018Thanks Vasil,
So when wanting to share a mailbox and keep a certain folder still private, is there another server based method? Or do we have to keep using "open additional mailbox" in Outlook?

The permissions are more important here, not the way you open the mailbox in Outlook. If you have Full access, any and all folders will be exposed and accessible for that user.

Then I see only the method of "open an additional mailbox" on the client. That way I can specifically assign permissions to each shared folder.
But in the meantime I am running into the 500 folder limit of Outlook 2016 anyway. I guess the unreliability of the customer's setup is rather based on that limit.
