Shared mailbox does not update itself
Hello everyone, So we have like 10 shared mailbox's and none of them are syncing itself. If I move some mails from inbox to another folder in the shared mailbox, I'd have to go to it and click th...
We ended up with creating a seperate mailbox, and stop using shared mailbox.
I would suggest you to do the same.
Unfortunately Outlook has not been optimized enough to do this probably.
Even we are facing the similar issue. Tried all possible solutions.
1. Creating new outlook profile.
2. Re-installing Outlook Client
3. Correcting folder permissions on shared mailbox
4. Disabling Auto-Mapping
5. Enabling Auto-Mapping
Please advise any possible solution to it.
Thanks.

Solution is the same - use OWA or use a separate profile in Outlook for just the shared mailbox. There's only so much Outlook can handle, having multiple shared mailboxes added, each of several GBs worth of email, will cause issues sooner or later.
- Just wanted to say (and I realize this is almost 1 year later), a large percentage of users HATE OWA and do not want to use it. I personally like OWA just fine, ever since Exchange 2010.
But Microsoft's FastTrack team will advise customers all the time that 10+ mailboxes in Outlook is totally fine (provided their network readiness assessment went well).
It can be frustrating for users, then admins.
