Test the mail tasks

   Separate needs from preferences • A required task can block a configuration. • Required: shared reply • Preferred: familiar interface • A failed requirement can block acceptance • A preference is a separate trade-off

   Distinguish a required business task from an interface preference. Shared reply is an example requirement; a familiar interface is a preference. A failed required task can prevent acceptance of the specific configuration even when people like its appearance. Existing tools suggest what to test but do not decide the platform alone.

   Name the exact setup • Compare the edition, client and permissions. • Shared reply • Calendar task • Access handover • Exact edition • Supported client • Granted permissions

   The approved diagram sends the same shared-reply, calendar and access-handover tasks to two equal candidate frames. Record the exact edition, supported operating system and client, licences and granted permissions. Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 configurations vary: do not infer a winner, free shared access or complete Outlook compatibility from the product name.

   Observe shared work • Check the reply address and another delegate’s access. • Own account • Shared address • Customer sees sender • Second delegate • Separate authorised accounts • Inspect the visible sender

   Two authorised delegates use their own accounts to reach a shared conversation. Inspect the customer-visible sender on a reply and confirm that a second delegate can find the conversation. Verify the actual tenant feature, licensing and permissions; this is not shared-password access and does not recommend signing in directly to a shared Microsoft mailbox.

   Record the trial evidence • Use pass, fail or unresolved for performed tasks. • Required task fails • Plan • Client • Permissions • Retest • Pass • Fail • Unresolved

   Record pass, fail or unresolved only for tasks actually performed. The article trial covers receipt and reply, shared address, meeting, old work, team change, administrative recovery and export. The approved failure diagram is conditional: diagnose the edition, client, permissions or unsupported workflow before revising and retesting. No test outcome for either vendor is asserted, and an unperformed task is not scored.

   Include migration and exit • Keep exclusions beside the evidence. • Migration coverage • Test the export sample • Keep exclusions explicit • Name the operating owner

   Include migration coverage, training, operating ownership and a bounded export sample in the decision. Exporting items does not establish restoration of all settings or shared permissions. Keep unresolved tasks, exclusions and responsibilities beside the evidence. Compare exact dated licensing and operating terms without presenting a universal vendor winner or a fixed price.
