Need help to add another mailbox to the Microsoft Outlook folder

This error is appearing in your case because your Outlook isn’t configured to enable “Folder Visible” option. Turn on the “Folder Visible” option for the mailbox containing the folder you want to share.

To do so, follow these steps:

1. On your PC, right-click “Mailbox”.
2. Select “Properties” in the “Folders list”.
3. Open “Permissions” tab.
4. Check the box saying “Folder visible” in “Permissions” area.
5. Click “OK”.

Now, your error should disappear forever.
