Reproduce Outlooks “Open additional mailbox” functionality in Thunderbird

by xenmachine . Updated 17 years, 8 months ago

I’ve set up my primary account in Thunderbird 2 and I have no problems accessing my exchange mail for that account.

In Outlook, that account opened an additional mailbox using the same credentials – it’s a shared mailbox that 3-4 users need access to, and each of our primary logins were allowed to open and use that mailbox.

I can’t figure out how to do this in Thunderbird.

If I create a new account for this other mailbox, but put my primary account’s username in, I’m told “Another account that uses that server name and user name already exists”, OWTTE.

Is this possible to set up? Or is there a workaround?

TIA
