My understanding is you can connect an Office 365 shared mailbox to a personal Hubspot account with IMAP settings, however, this option doesn't seem to bve available for the team shared mailbox connection in Hubspot.
This would be extremely useful as most business traffic comes through generic shared info@ or enquiries@ addresses and not being able to connect them to it's counterpart in Hubspot is a real loss.

I will at least move this from 'Idea Submitted' to 'Being Reviewed' because all of your helpful feedback and and upvotes are not going into a blackhole! Turns out I've been subscribed to this post for awhile, and we are wondering if this is something we can tackle next year.

Just spent all morning trying to work out what I was doing wrong... shocking that this isn't possible currently... add my vote for this to get fixed, shared mailboxes are a must in our organisation!
We are increasingly finding issues with the Outlook desktop version of the plug-in such as recently an issue with the certificate used to sign the ClickOnce deployment. The desktop plug-in is the only way we can track emails from shared mailboxes. I imagine lots of businesses use a shared mailbox, not personal mailboxes, when communicating with clients and customers.
We would love to be able to ditch the old VSTO-based plug-in and use the new Office 365 "web" add-in for a shared mailbox.
For that to happen, we have to be able to sign into the HubSpot plug in with a personal account (so we know who is sending the emails), but track their emails from the shared mailbox.
It's astounding this is still being considered 6 years later without any action. Shared mailboxes and Help Desk should work hand-in-hand. That would be logical. Instead we have to workaround by assigning Exchange Online licenses to each shared mailbox in order to load into HubSpot. This is currently costing us £hundreds each month in license fees and associated security costs. I'll check back in in another 6 years I guess...
