Shared Mailbox Setup
A shared mailbox can be created by an individual with DMC access using the generic account form. Information from IDM about generics and the request process can be found here - Generic Accounts (aka Vanity)
Steps:
Within DMC, choose 'Request Generic Account' from the menu
Account type for the requested account must be 'Shared Mailbox' from the drop down. All other options are based on needs of the unit.
After the account has been approved, log into the mailbox and setup forwarding to your project email address. /wiki/spaces/ITHELP/pages/159940689.
With forwarding configured, no mailbox permissions or access are required to be assigned as all email will route to the email address entered during forwarding setup.
