Unable to see "Open another mailbox..." in Outlook Web App
After Outlook on the web update, I am unable to find out the option to open another mailbox. So, I had to switch back to old Outlook.
- New Outlook
Hi,
There is no option currently, but there is a workaround. As memory serves from doing many migrations over the years and assuming you have full permissions over the mailbox you should be able to open it be changing the browser URL from
https://outlook.office.com/mail/inbox
To
https://outlook.office.com/mail/mailboxupnas in
https://outlook.office.com/mail/username@domain.com
And assuming you have full permissions it should open. As said, I know its not the actual function as of yet, but it may be a workaround of use.
Hope that helps
Best, Chris

- Alvaro AcevedoCopper ContributorThanks, it works as a workatound!
But, evantually we will need a proper solution for all our end users.
Thanks again!
Best, AlvaroEventually, the new Outlook web app will get this option :)
Sadly that's a known limitation with the "preview" experience. It should eventually be addressed, but for the time being if you need it, you must use the old experience.

Hope this comes soon to the new experience as well.- Alvaro AcevedoCopper ContributorIs there any update for this issue?
