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!
Thanks James - I've been trying to work this out for hours then found your post! Just a couple of questions to follow - is there a way to change the display name for the alias so it doesn't just show the email address as the name? And can this also be set up on an iPhone to send from the alias? Thanks again
Hi all,
one solution that has occurred to me is to login to a shared mailbox via a pop3 account... i've tried this and it looks possible but i couldn't get the login to work... any thoughts?
There exists ChooseFrom cloud service that allows you to send as alias.
Also there is this to mention on the roadmap although it is for OWA where at our company we mostly use the Outlook program.
