Alias: you can send email from an address which is the reply address of your mailbox. You can use address rewriting or similar features to accomplish this.
I'm not sure minimal Hybrid is supported with multi-forest scenarios, best contact support to confirm that. Once you get the mailboxes to O365, you should have no problems assigning aliases from either domain though, as they will be in the same organization.
Hi thanks for mentioning that, hopefully I can get this confirmed.
setting an alias would only allow you to receive to that address? I would want all users to have the same email address for sending/receiving.

- Thanks, that's very promising. So this would mean keeping AAD Connect for syncing local AD account passwords as we currently do with two forests.
Do you know of any good information on how to go about using Aliases and address rewriting to get all users having email@a.com ?
