There are a handful of cases that have reported the same situation. There has been an escalation made with our Engineering team to get this resolved. There has been a fix applied to the server, but it will take around a week to fully deploy. I will follow up with you next Thursday to confirm if you are still seeing the issue, if that is okay.

- I wanted to share I was able to resolve this issue. I had to directly assign permissions to the shared mail box and make sure that automapping was on. - No security Groups.
The kicker is to get IRM to kick off and check permissions. I recently learned in Outlook - Double clicking the email or reading it in pop-out mode can initiate permissions check and allow the user to read the email in the Outlook application. No more redirection via edge, the content can be read from the mail box.- Thank you for your very helpful reply. My user had direct auto-mapped access to the shared mailbox and reported that double-clicking to open the encrypted email in pop-out mode in the Outlook client worked for her!
