Sending email as alias in office365?
ab1234260Something I just thought of is created a rule in exchange to tag the message saying it was sent to a certain account which would work for my scenario however maybe not for yours. The only issue I see is in my testing I am unsure of what to put for specify header name. The secondary alias DOES show up in the header so that is promising.
FYI here for reference if I put To as the specified header name it works however when testing a reply email it does not match the rule but when creating a new email message it does. Here is a list of headers:

I tried In-Reply-To, Reply-To, and References with no luck. Regardless that is getting off topic but wanted to mention it in case someone else was wondering what to enter in the specified header field.
Back on topic I like they are looking to add the feature in OWA by the end of this year

All my users use the Outlook program but it is a start.
That is good news.. MSFT certainly being more agile... i'm trying to use the shared mailbox function but i get "You do not have the permission to send the message on behalf of the specified user." when i try to send from outlook... i wonder if it just takes time to propagate.. will try again next week
