[Exchange] Sent messages in wrong "Sent" folder

Mail
1

When using an MS Exchange user ([email protected]) with access to other accounts ([email protected]), mails sent from that other accounts don’t land in that accounts “Sent” folder, but in the root users “Sent” folder.

How to reproduce (eM Client v.8 and v.9):

  1. Set up an Exchange user that has access to other accounts mailboxes. ([email protected])
  2. In the Exchange users account settings, select the “Exchange Web Services” Tab
  3. Add the other accounts mailbox, your account has access to in “Delegation” > “Accounts you can see” > “Show” ([email protected])
  4. Save and quit the account settings. In your eM Client mail view, you can see the additional account below your own.
  5. Compose a new email and set the additional account as sender. ([email protected])
  6. The sent message doesn’t appear under the additional account’s sent folder ([email protected]), but in your own ([email protected]).

This doesn’t happen in for example outlook, where the e-mail correctly lands in the Sent folder of the mail account who sent the message.

Does someone have a tip in how to fix this or is this a bug?

Hi!

Check these out:

In our case, the fix was as follows:

  1. Log into admin dot microsoft dot com.
  2. Teams & groups → Shared mailboxes
  3. Edit shared mailbox, “Sent items”
  4. Enable “Copied to mailbox” and “Copied to mailbox on behalf”

Hope this helps :).

I would love if it didn’t also copy to root user’s Sent folder. Apparently not possible, but will look into adding a rule to clear this out.
