I would like to setup access a shared mailbox via ActiveSync by multiple users. Shared mailboxes have disabled user objects by default and I don't want the users to have to share a password for the shared mailbox. So I attempted to grant the users full access to the mailbox to see if they could log into the account using their own credentials via ActiveSync, like in Outlook. After configuring the phone with the shared mailbox e-mail address and the user's (who has full access) ID and password the user's mailbox is coming up, not the shared mailbox.
I know I can enable the AD object and have the user's share the password. Are there any other options? If I enable the account does that then require a user license? I'm assuming that's why it gets disabled.
Thoughts?
