When an email is deleted from a shared mailbox in an Outlook application or web portal, it is sent by default to the Deleted Items folder of the primary email of whoever deletes that email.
Note: As part of Exchange's online enhanced security, shared mailboxes are added to Outlook based on the permissions granted through the IT Service Desk and are not accessible with passwords.
