As far as I know, Outlook doesn’t natively support such a capability.
- As was mentioned in a comment, your life might be easier
if you didn’t have multiple users sharing a mailbox.
But I guess if this is something like
help@your-company.com
or support@your-company.com
, it might be the best way to do it.
It’s not clear from your question
whether you want every message to be read by everybody,
or whether you want every message to be handled by somebody,
so, if person A reads a message and doesn’t handle it,
persons B and C will know that the message hasn’t handled it.
- If you want every message to be read by everybody,
your best bet may be to use different software.
Many years ago I used Lotus Notes,
and I recall that it had a capability like this.
- If you want every message to be handled by somebody,
- Train your users to manually mark a message as unread
if they read it and don’t handle it.
- Create a “Handled” folder,
and train your users to manually move messages to that folder
when they’ve been handled.
- Investigate the possibility of automating one of the above options
with VBA.

I can only guess that using POP3 rather than IMAP would do what you want, but your question really is unclear :-( – Mawg says reinstate Monica – 2018-03-08T07:49:25.500
1Not using the same email address on multiple PCs would easily accomplish what you are describing. – tripleee – 2018-03-08T08:54:00.820
Did you ever find a solution to this problem? We are facing the same issue where I work. – LShaver – 2018-08-30T18:45:30.817
