Add Shared Folder

This section is OPTIONAL if you only want to view a folder of another mailbox (such as the inbox folder) inside your personal mailbox. 

To add a shared mailbox to your primary inbox on Outlook Web Access (OWA). Right-click the "Folder" navigation item and choose "Add shared folder". Find the mailbox and add the one you have access to and it will add another folder in your web application.
