To add a resource account in Outlook, follow these steps:
1. Open Outlook and click on "File" in the top left corner of the screen. 2. Click on "Account Settings" and then "Account Settings" again from the drop-down menu. 3. In the Account Settings window, click on the "New" button in the top left corner of the window. 4. Select "Email Account" and then click on "Next." 5. Enter the email address of the resource account in the "Email address" field and click on "Connect." 6. Enter your login credentials for the resource account and click on "OK." 7. Outlook will now attempt to automatically configure the account. If successful, you'll see a "Congratulations!" message. If not, you'll need to manually configure the account by selecting the "Manual setup or additional server types" checkbox. 8. Follow the prompts to manually configure the account, if necessary. 9. Once the account is configured, click on "Finish" to complete the process.
