Multiple mailboxes w/ distinct Inboxes. Possible?

[Guest]

I have added a second Exchange mailbox to my default Outlook profile using
the delegation method. Currently, the second mailbox (B) is displayed, but it
does not have its own inbox. Instead all mail for (B) is forwarded to my
primary inbox (A).

This may be normal behavior, but what I really want is to display separate
inboxes for each Exchange mailbox in the same manner that additional POP or
HTTP accounts have their own, distinct inboxes. Is this possible? (I don't
want to do this rules and subfolders.)

To sum up, In my primary Outlook profile I currently have:
Mailbox [A]
+ Inbox [A] (containing items delivered to both [A] and )
Mailbox (with no associated inbox)

I want:
Mailbox [A]
+ Inbox [A] (containing items delivered to [A])
Mailbox
+ Inbox (containing items delivered to )

This is very possible, you would want to add the auxiliary mailboxes via a
right click on "mailbox - <username>" > properties > advanced button >
advanced tab > select add button > type in exchange alias of mailbox you
want to add and then ok your way out.

Just keep in mind that you will need reviewer rights on the parent folder
("mailbox - <username>") + plus whatever rights needed on the Inbox.

Thanks Neo,

I neglected to delegate permission to share the secondary inbox. Once I did
this (while logged in to the secondary profile) I was able to display the
shared folder from my primary profile by right-clicking the second mailbox
and selecting "open other folder"--->"other user's folder".

Thanks for the tip. The remaining problem is that all mail delivered to the
second mailbox is automatically forwarded to my primary inbox. This leaves my
primary inbox crowded with messages from two accounts and while my second
inbox remains permanantly empty. Is there a way to disable this forwarding so
that messages remain in their respective inboxes? (I created a new post to
ask this question.)

Thanks again.

Yep, someone needs to go into Active Directory Users and Computers (Exchange
2000/2003) or Exchange Administrator (Exchange 5.5) and turn the forwarding
feature off.

ps - For Active Directory Users and Computers, you have to use a machine
that has the Exchange System Manager installed.
