Hi, We have Coexistence Scenario with Exchange 2016 CU2 and Exchange 2010 SP3. We moved 5 of 120 Outlook 2016 for MAC user’s mailbox to Exchange 2016. On 2 Mac users (User X and Y) access to public folder works perfectly. On the other 3 (User A, B and C), it doesn’t work.
All Offices are on latest version (15.25 if I’m correct). If a user A B or C logs on MAC of user X, and configures his mailbox on Outlook, it starts working! If user X logs on MAC of user A B C, it doesn’t work. Very strange and I’m not sure how to proceed now.
