    Hi @Roger Roger

    I tested in my lab and was able to reproduce the issue.
    I suppose that it should be the expected behavior.

    The room mailbox is listed under mailboxes instead of resources because its RecipientType is MailUser.

    It is also mentioned in this link:
    New-RemoteMailbox
    101810-03.jpg


    If you run the following command via EMS:

    Get-ADuser -Identity room1 -Properties  * | fl msExchRemoteRecipientType,msExchRecipientDisplayType,msExchRecipientTypeDetails  
    

    101889-01.jpg

    You may see the results match the ones in this link:
    Recipient Type Values

    33 ProvisionMailbox, RoomMailbox
    -2147481850 MailUser (RemoteRoomMailbox)
    8589934592 RemoteRoomMailbox

    And it shows the correct values of the remote mailbox.
