Email is used by the Hornbill applications in various processes. For example, Service Manager within Incident management it can be used to both receive requests to create a call or to communicate progress or resolution of a request.
Your new Hornbill instance is equipped with a default mailbox (helpdesk) which has an inbound service and email address already configured. This can be used to get up and running more quickly. To begin using the default mailbox (or any other new Shared Mailbox you create) a new Security Role must be created. Before creating a new role for use with your shared mailbox, we recommend reading general information on the Hornbill Roles, please see the Roles wiki page.
Roles are created via Hornbill Administration Home > System > Organisational Data > Roles
- Click 'Create New Role'(located to the top right of the list) and populate the fields as follows:-

- Description: This Role will be used to grant access to the xxxxx Shared Mailbox
At this stage the "Applications" and "Shared Mailboxes" fields aren't active so simply click 'Create Role'

A further tab will now be exposed at the top of the form labelled "Shared Mailbox Rights".
