To enable access to legacy mailboxes or public folders

  1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

    The option Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes enables you to verify that the target mailbox id displayed in the list of mailboxes.

  6. If prompted, enter a logon account that stores the credentials of a user account that is unique and has a corresponding mailbox of the same name.
