How to change Alias name in Office 365
- Aug 02, 2018If you are running a hybrid config, you need to use the set-remotemailbox with the -alias parameter with the on premises Exchange shell instead.
Set-remotemailbox -identity walid.fawzy@contoso.com -alias wfawzy

Hi Walid Fawzy,
What steps are you performing ? What solution you have implemented ? What consoles are you running to do the commands ?

He is trying everything we throw at him.
Walid, do one screenshot of attribute editor, proxy addresses details window (with masked actual address). You can also do a screenshot of Office 365 admin center with that user's details opened. And i guess you can do screenshots of running powershell commands you've been suggested above.
Also, what happens if you email to alias address?
