  1. Open Microsoft Outlook

  2. Click File > Open > Other User's Folder....
    (Some Outlook clients may show File > Open > Shared Mailbox...)

    File > Open

  3. Type the Shared E-Mail Address and click Open.
    *Note* Some groups may show up as username-members and that's OK.

    Email Address

  4. You will now see a Checking Permissions icon.

Once checking permissions has completed, the shared mailbox should populate under your main mailbox (left panel).
