Create user mailbox in Exchange Server
Sign in to Exchange Admin Center. Click recipients in the feature pane and click the mailboxes tabs. Click the + icon in the toolbar and click on User mailbox.
Select Existing user and click Browse to find the user that already is created in Active Directory (AD). If you don’t have the user created in AD, select New user and fill in the fields. That will create a new user in AD, including a mailbox.
Note: When you create a new user mailbox in Exchange, you also create the corresponding Active Directory simultaneously. Or, you can create a new mailbox for an existing Active Directory account that doesn’t have an associated mailbox. This is known as mailbox-enabling an existing user.
Select the user and click OK.
Click More options…
If you have more than one database to choose from, click Browse.
