Does your team share the password for accounts@, sales@ or info@?

There’s a better way. A Microsoft 365 shared mailbox lets authorised colleagues open the same business inbox from their own accounts, respond using the shared address and keep work together—without passing around one password.

It makes access easier to manage when responsibilities change and gives everyone a clearer view of which messages still need attention.

A small improvement, but one that can make everyday communication simpler and more professional.

Not sure whether your shared inboxes are configured properly? SME IT Solutions can take a look.

⚠️ A quick warning for your team: if a website verification or CAPTCHA asks you to open PowerShell, Windows Terminal or the Run box and paste a command—stop.

Microsoft has observed this technique being used on compromised websites. The page may look convincing, but a genuine “prove you’re human” check should never require you to run commands on your computer.

Close the page and contact your IT support team. That brief pause could prevent a much larger security incident.

Please share this simple warning with colleagues—it is easy to remember and could protect your whole organisation.
