Can you elaborate the issue more with screenshot of the activity you are using with property values (put dummy values) and also the error you are getting. I think the issue is more from configuration side for the shared mailbox, once its fixed the issue will be fixed without any code/activity change on you iRPA project.

additionally see the url below, if it helps in terms of setting from outlook/office side
