Hi you can try with the below code(I have edit your above posted code) and also remove unusual code according to your need.
Sub OutlookTesting()
Dim folders As Outlook.folders
Dim folder As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim iRow As Integer
Dim Pst_Folder_Name
Dim MailboxName
Dim UnRow As Integer
Dim RESS As Outlook.Recipient
Dim Flag As Integer
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim olNS As Outlook.Namespace
Dim olfldr As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim foldername As Outlook.MAPIFolder
Dim sharedemail As Outlook.Recipient
Set olApp = New Outlook.Application
Set olNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set sharedemail = olNS.CreateRecipient("youremail#abc.com")
Set olfldr = olNS.GetSharedDefaultFolder(sharedemail, olFolderInbox)
Set folder = olfldr
If folder = "" Then
MsgBox "Invalid Data in Input"
GoTo end_lbl1:
End If
'Rad Through each Mail and export the details to Excel for Email Archival
For iRow = 1 To folder.Items.Count
If (folder.Items(iRow).UnRead) Then
Flag = 0
Set Res = folder.Items(iRow).Recipients
For Each RESS In Res
If RESS.Name = "XYZ" Or RESS.Name = "ABC" Then
Flag = 1
End If
Next
If Flag = 1 Then
folder.Items(iRow).UnRead = True
Else: folder.Items(iRow).UnRead = False
End If
End If
Next iRow
MsgBox "Outlook Mails Extracted to Excel"
end_lbl1:
End Sub
