Proxy addresses broken after enabling Azure AD Connect
All mailboxes are EXO only. The whole system started as EXO only - there has never been an On-Prem install.
The basic feature to SendAs and SendOnBehalf has worked for me forever and if that wouldn't work that would completely invalidate mailbox delegations.
The menu point as described in the blog article doesn't even exist for me anymore. Since activating AD sync all options for this have disappeared even though they existed forever before. Also disabling AD sync didn't revert the breakdown.
Edit:
After a further test I found out that I can SendAs a shared mailbox by manually typing the From address in Outlook Desktop (dropdown is missing). But I cannot SendOnBehalf a shared mailbox and I cannot send as my second proxy address.
Do you see the From field at all? You can turn it on by opening a new message and going to Options -> From
Is this working from Outlook on the Web?

Dan_SnapeWhat I expect is that I click New E-Mail and then click the From dropdown and then I should be able to select my own proxy addresses as well as the addresses of the shared mailboxes I'm allowed to SendAs and/or SendOnBehalf.
Per default I do not see the From field. When I manually enable it in the settings then I see only my own primary address to choose from. My proxy address and the shared mailboxes are missing completely.
- Dan_SnapeJul 18, 2023Bronze ContributorRead the blog I posted above about the current status of changing the "From" address to one of your own SMTP proxy addresses.
If you are looking at Send As or Send-On-Behalf, you'll need to type the address in and select it...I don't believe they are automatically included in the drop down list. In OWA you can switch to the required mailbox and send.- felixtechJul 19, 2023Copper Contributor
Dan_SnapeThe thing is all of this has worked for many, many years and it also has worked before I turned on AAD Connect. There has to be a drop-down with all my aliases and shared mailboy addresses as it has been basically for my entire life. And going to OWA to a specific shared mailbox to reply to an e-mail is at max a temporary workaround and not a solution.
