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?

    I've figured out, in my case at least - how to add a shared mailbox or folder to your favorites in New outlook.

    Apologies if this is common knowledge.

    If you press the 3 dots to the right of Favorites Tab (when hovering mouse over it) - You can press "Add Favorite" and then search for the folder/shared account etc you desire to add.

    This worked for me & I now have Shared Inbox in my favorites .. !!

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

    Yep, I agree, ugh!

    What do the Microsoft New (and better???) Outlook Team think shared mailboxes are for?

    I bet most use cases are mailboxes that need to be monitored, probably be a group of individuals, for new inbox items. With the current 'Shared with me' arrangement, there's no activity indicator at the shared mailbox level and even expanding the shared mailbox to see the inbox does not persist between Outlook starts.

    The current implementation for shared mailboxes is dumb and January 2025 is way too long!
