How to access a shared mailbox

UTmail+ shared mailboxes are accessed via an individual’s personal UTmail+ account credentials (UTORid and password). A UTmail+ shared mailbox does not have its own set of login credentials, unlike the shared mailboxes that were previously issued on the legacy UTORmail email platform.

Owners of shared mailboxes grant and revoke mailbox access privileges via UTORGrouper: KB0010165

Windows (Outlook 2016/2019/365)

Default: Simply restart Outlook. The shared account appears in the left sidebar below your personal account.
To manually add the account to an existing Outlook profile: KB0011567
Set up as a standalone Outlook profile: KB0011501

Thunderbird and other POP/IMAP email clients do not officially support UTmail+ shared mailboxes. Modifying the personal Thunderbird setup parameters (as seen in KB0011628) may work if the username is in the form "shared.email@utoronto.ca/personal.email@utoronto.ca". Accessing shared mailboxes via mail.utoronto.ca is recommended to avoid connection issues.
