Support for shared mailboxes
Office 365 shared mailboxes are very useful. Unfortunately, they do not load outlook web add-ins right now: see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35059067/make-outlook-add-ins-working-with-office-365-shared-mailboxes/35065215
This would be terrific to have add-ins for such mailboxes especially for all CRMs related apps

Our Web Department shares several mailboxes. The add-ins are very much needed in our organization.

Having the report message add in work in group boxes and shared mailboxes is important, not just in the individual mailboxes. Hoping you can enhance the tool to include this functionality.

This is a huge issue for us as well. To work around this issue we have had to build and maintain VSTO COM Add-in versions for all our Outlook add-ins. This complicates rollout at almost all of our enterprise customers!

If this feature could be added, lots of our issues would be resolved - this would boost the Outlook satisfaction level of our users drastically (especially assistants).
Any update on this?

Hello there. How's this now? BTW, it is very strange that the add-in can be opened in shared mailbox on Win 10 Outlook desktop client, but not on Win 7

How is this not already a thing? Oh wait, because people should be using Teams, right? Teams, that cant handle the basics of mass workflow and reporting.

Please add as soon as possible! If you use a shared mailbox in a team you can either open it as a shared folder in your mailbox (BUT THEN THE CATEGORIES DO NOT SHARE) or you can open it as a second mailbox (BUT THEN THE ADD-INS DO NOT WORK). This is kind of sad when you need to use both.

Please add this feature, the use case is really important for our add-in. Our customers use several shared inboxes and public folders for entire departments or functions, and this is exactly where we need our add-in to be available.

Agreed, please fix this ASAP
Many wonderful add-ins but quite useless if they don't work in shared mailboxes :-/
