Sending email as alias in office365?
I know this thread is a little old, but it ranks highly under a Google for this issue so wanted to add more information.
It is now possible to send for alias addresses quite simply using O365 and Outlook.
- Simply add the alias to your account in the usual way in O365 Admin.
- In Outlook, open a new mail and from the "Options" ribbon ensure the 'From' button is pressed to reveal this field.
- Click this drop down and select "other email address".
- Under here you can manually type the email you want to send from
- The next time you return to the from drop down, the address will be there to select with 1 click.
Hope this helps someone one!
James, is that possible from Outlook for Mac, or only Outlook for Windows?
(and what if people are using Mail for Mac instead?)

Joseph LuoI have used my method on Mac successfully however my walk through is for windows.

I have a mac laying around and will plan on making a walk through on Mac. The POP account settings will be the same however getting to the area to add that information is different.
I know you open outlook and enter the account settings from the program menu somewhere.
Add POP3 account and in my walk through you will enter the settings for the POP account.
Cleanup steps will be different as well but google can probably help. I will let you know when I add the Mac walk through. Hope is works out.
