Hi All,
User A is delegated Send of Behalf and calendar Editor permission for a mailbox of User B.
User A is NOT delegated Full Access for a mailbox of User B.
It was found out that User A can open Inbox folder from desktop Outlook.
User A goes to File - Open & Export - Other User's Folder, then select user User B and folder Inbox and the entire Inbox folder of User B is opened in user's A Outlook.
How it is possible that User A can open User's B Inbox folder without having Full Access delegated permission?

Folder-level permissions will also allow you access, the difference with Full access permissions is that the former are more granular. If your case, the user has likely been granted permissions not only on the Calendar folder, so double-check that (either via Outlook/OWA or the Get-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet).
Thanks.
Found that the User A had Editor permission to UserB@\Inbox.
The issue ahs been resolved by removing permission.
@Vasil Michev quick question.
Is granting calendar permission automatically grants permission to Inbox?
The reason why I'm asking is the User A has never been granted permission to User's B inbox folder explicitly.
Just wondering how it became possible.
No, it does not. It's fairly easy to select the Inbox folder too, when granting delegate access via Outlook though, which is what might have happened in your case.
Hello @Cloud_Geek_82
Could you provide a screenshot of user B's "Get-MailboxPermission" output?
In addition, you can also check the following settings to see if inbox is "None"(file->account settings->Delegate Access->user A->permissions）
In the "Delegate Access", please check whether user A has been granted "Inbox Permissions".
refer to: Manage another person's mail and calendar items
