(Part Two) Add A Shared Profile in Shared Mailbox in a Separate Profile using Windows 10

  1. Click Add...  Make sure the Prompt for a profile to be used radio button is selected.



  2. Type the name you want to give the new mailbox profile. It doesn't have to be the email address or mailbox name; this is just the name for the Profile in the list. 



  3. Outlook may populate the email address field. Erase your firstname.lastname@uconn.edu and enter the address of the group inbox in that field. Leave the Password field blank and click Next.



  4. After a short delay, it will launch an authentication window. In it, erase the group email inbox that's prefilled and enter your firstname.lastname@uconn.edu and NetID password.
    *This window may appear slightly differently depending on the version of Outlook used, below are some examples of the authentication window you may see.

  5. The profile wizard may stall for a moment while it authenticates on your behalf, and then the profile will be created. Click Finish.



  6. Upon launching Outlook, it will ask you which inbox you'd like to open. Select the one you wish to open (your personal or a shared mailbox) and click OK. If an authentication window appears, erase the email address pre-entered by Outlook and instead type your Login ID (firstname.lastname@uconn.edu) along with your NetID password. This will open the desired inbox.
