A shared mailbox is a mailbox that multiple users can open to read and send e-mail messages. Shared mailboxes allow a group of users to view and send e-mail from a common mailbox. They also allow users to share a common calendar, so they can schedule and view vacation time or work shifts.

Why Configure a Shared Mailbox

  • It can provide a generic e-mail address, such as info@contoso.com or sales@contoso.com, which customers can use to inquire about your company.
  • You can share a common calendar.
  • It allows staff in departments that provide centralized services to employees, such as the help desk, human resources, or printing services, to respond to employee questions.
  • It allows multiple users to monitor and reply to e-mail sent to an e-mail address, such as a help desk.
  • In a school environment, it provides students and parents with an entry point to different school departments, such as academic departments, library services, or financial aid.
