Installing Multiple Outlook Accounts
Hi All
I have two outlook accounts in my Navigation Pane. Each account seems to work if I manually select either of the account. I want to be able to toggle the default account from on to other.
When I use File\Account Settings\Email Accounts\ to select a default, I only see one of the two accounts on the "Email" tab. The second account is a corporate account which was added to my Navigation Pane by our IT guy. I don't understand how the security for this second, corporate account works but if I try to "Add" it to the File\Account Settings\Email Accounts\ "Email Tab" my windows authentication doesn't work and my IT guys doesn't seem to have another password.
My question is, how can I get the Navigation Path account to display in the account setting form so that I can toggle the default email account between my company email account and the other (second) Corporate email account.
Thanks you

- Best talk with your IT guy, as they will need to adjust permissions. They will need to remove automapping first, easy way to do that is remove your permissions, then grant Full Access via PowerShell:
Add-MailboxPermission shared@domain.com -User you@domain.com -AccessRights FullAccess -AutoMapping $false
Assuming you have the necessary permissions (Full access), you can follow the steps here: https://www.michev.info/Blog/Post/2025/how-to-add-a-shared-mailbox-as-additional-account-in-outlook-2016-build-8431-and-above-on-windows-10-1709-and-above- Thank you! I will check with IT.
