'''How to give access to another user to view your mailbox'''

Setting permissions in another user's mailbox so you can see their folders
#First steps - we need permission to see another user's mail folders, naturally.
#Start Outlook as the generic mailbox user and right-click the folder(s) you want to share, and then click Sharing on the shortcut menu.
#This has to be done for each folder you wish to share/see in another email account (your own).
#In the Permissions tab, click the Add... button. Add the users you wish to have access to this folder from the Global Address Book; when finished, click OK.
#For each user, set the required permission level. This is up to you, but will probably be Owner or Reviewer which grants Full and Just Read permissions respectively.
