Adding email accounts without license
Hi parsarvin,
You can add additional smtp addresses to the same user or create a shared mailbox and give access to that user.

Please consider this use case: my company wants to have an email email address removed for privacy reasons
This is an email that doesn't owned by any particular user. It is only for a customer service contact address.
It also should be a separate login.
So, can we create an email account only for the email services? - kirk1972Jan 14, 2021Copper Contributor
NunoAriasSilva Can I add email users to our office 365 account in which the user will only be using the email function, or do I have to buy each employee a full user license at $12.50/mo?
- NeilsonFariaMay 10, 2024Copper ContributorIs possible. I wrote about that.

NunoAriasSilva I am not sure if this is what I asked exactly. I was looking for adding additional and separate email accounts without having to assign license to them. so they just act as email account and no Office apps or Onedrive etc is assigned to them.
let's say you want to give someone a temporary email account or for any reason you don't want to pay additional license fee for just creating additional email account.
in the other words, there are many email services which really cost a dime and let you create hundreds of additional email address with no additional charge but with Office 365 It doesn't make sense to pay another 10-15$ just to create another email account.
Please advise
