Hi @michael lustig ,

As qasimali mentioned, in the point of Outlook client, we could manage it via "DelegateSentItemsStyle " registry value, based on my tests, it could work for my shared mailbox, for your reference, here are my detailed steps:

• create the DelegateSentItemsStyle value in registry key :

Location: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Preferences
Type: DWORD
Value: DelegateSentItemsStyle
Data: 1

(Note: Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before making changes, back up the registry to restore it in case something goes wrong.)

• restart your Outlook and ensure you are working in cached exchange mode

For more information, please refer to this document: Set the DelegateSentItemsStyle registry value on the Outlook client

Also, if you are an exchange administrator, you could also try to follow the Method 1 to manage it via powershell :

Method 1: Configure the mailbox to save a copy of the message to the Sent Items folder of the shared mailbox in Exchange Online or in on-premises Exchange Server

Hope that would be helpful to you.

the sent message goes into your own Sent Items folder. By default, sent messages are stored in your own mailbox, not the shared mailbox and the
Delegate sent item style
