Outlook Android/iOS app - send as distribution group
Hi there, I have a question. Is there somewere on the Internet Android/iOS application that can send emails as distribution group ? We tried mobile Outlook app - doesn't allow it, we tried OWA - ...
I'm not aware of any! Considered shared mailboxes?

Like how you think it should work ?
we have email, for e.g. info@vzv.cz, shared to a few users, and we need to send mail as this mail. But send it like .. the user with the mail shared will log in to App .. write a mail, choose a mail thru which he want to snad as and send. I think your solution would work like that the user will have to log out from his personal mail a log in to this "shared" info mail.
But thanks for opinion :)
Hi! If you have "send as" permissions on a shared mailbox you can send from that shared mailbox, still logged in as the user itself! this works from desktop Outlook / webmail..
For now shared folders isn't supported in the mobile outlook app BUT is on the roadmap and in development:

Yep, i know. We are using it this way on desktop, but we needed it on mobiles too so, I'm glad to read that its in develop.
Anyway, thanks a lot for replies, at least we know how it is.

They are working on Send As support for Outlook on mobiles. In the meantime, you can always use the device browser to open OWA and use the native Send As functionality there.
