I see in the new version of Outlook that all my shared mailboxes are now in "Shared with me" section. I can't see to add them back to my favorites. Has anyone been about to do this?

    In the new Outlook, if you want to move a folder from a "Shared with me" mailbox to Favorites, be aware that you can make favorites of any of the sub-folders (eg. Inbox, Drafts, Sent Items, etc) but not the whole mailbox.

    Start by opening the shared mailbox in the "Shared with me" folder by pressing the > beside the shared mailbox name.

    Then right click any of the folders in that shared mailbox and make them favorites.

    Alternatively you can drag and drop the folder into Favorites.

    I've had my account updated to the 'Targeted Release' which gives access to 'Early Access'.

    It's been on this about a week now and all Office apps are up to date but I still don't have this new functionality.

    I have reverted to the previous version of outlook as I cannot work with the new version at all!

    Following

    Our entire office share a mailbox and we need this to be at the top of the tree for visibility.
