Add as mailbox

 

As a rule, delegated accounts are also added when a primary account is added and displayed as separate folders under the mailboxes. However, if a delegation is not set up until later, it may sometimes be necessary to add the mailbox at a later date.

To add the mailbox later, open your Outlook and select the "File" tab. Open your account settings there.
