Shared mailbox: Use send-as, not send on behalf from Outlook 2016
- Nov 23, 2017
The behavior depends on how you've added the shared mailbox in Outlook (automapped vs additional account), and of course by the method you use to compose the message. Check my ramblings on the topic here: https://www.michev.info/Blog/Post/1430/

- Haneef Ibn AhmadMar 11, 2018Iron ContributorVery insightful article! Thanks.
Do you have any piece on the differences between: Shared Mailbox, User mailbox that is shared, Office 365 group, and Mail Enabled Security Group.

Difference in terms of the Send As functionality, or in general? For Send As, it doesn't matter that much what kind of object you have, as long as you have the necessary permissions. The difference is mainly in how you want to handle the messages (i.e. gather them centrally in some mailbox), as different objects can have different methods to use on that part.
- Haneef Ibn AhmadMar 14, 2018Iron ContributorThanks for that.
I was looking for a comprehensive comparison of the different types of mailboxes and its available features, pros, cons and restrictions.

When choosing the From address using the Global Address List instead of the offline one, I'm now able to send-as. :)
Thanks for the help

Many years later, came to say this worked for me also.
- Dominick440Sep 18, 2024Brass ContributorThis was the solution for me.

When setting new send-as permissions, a new OAB must be build and downloaded by the clients. If you need to use send-as ad-hoc, you need to switch to Outlook Online Mode. Alternatively, you can use Outlook on the Web.
