Hi Roger,

Please run the following command to check if the "RemoteRecipientType" property includes "ProvisionMailbox":

Get-RemoteMailbox -Identity [email protected]

If not, you can try to run the following command and check again:

Set-Aduser SharedAccount -Replace @{msExchRemoteRecipientTYpe="1"}

Hi Roger,

The value is 100 means that this is an shared mailbox in exchange online.

How did you create this shared mailbox ? Can you run "get-remotemailbox" cmdlet to find it?

Get-Remotemailbox -Identity "sharedmailboxoncloud"

If can not, you need to convert this shared mailbox in exchange online instead of in on-premise, then migrate it to on-premise.

How to convert the shared mailbox to regular in Exchange online:

Using EAC:

EAC > Recipients > Shared > Select the shared mailbox in Exchange online > Click "Convert" button in right pane  

Using Exchange online powershell:

Set-Mailbox SharedMailbox -Type Regular
