Jun 19, 2018works like a charm so Thx, one thing it doesn't seem to do I want to change from Capitals to lowercase
WORD@mail.com to word@mail.com
any advice/suggestions?
- Yahkoob AyappallyJun 20, 2018Copper ContributorHi Susan,
Thanks for your update!!!
I think you don't worry about the capital and small letters, its case sensitive and you can ignore it. I hope you can change the capital to small letters because mail system is considered as a both are same email address. You can spread your group email ID as usual with word@mail.com and you will receive all emails.
Let me know if you have a more query.

Hi Yahkoob
Thanks for this. And I figured this is why it doesn't change. However we would like it to display in lowercase as it's our company name and it's officially spelled lowercase. If you have a solution great. If not we have to live with it, like with many other "imperfections" :-)
- Yahkoob AyappallyJun 20, 2018Copper ContributorHi Susan,
Yes It is possible, you can add new email ID and you can promote your new Email ID as an SMTP and you can remove your Old Email ID. But performing this steps, you need a global Administrator access.
Please follow below Steps to change Office 365 group Email address:-
Current SMTP address :- WORD@mail.com
Required SMTP address :- word@mail.com
Follow the below steps in power shell using Global Administrator Credentials,
1. Connect to Exchange Online via Power shell using Global Administrator Credentials and run the below commends. First two command run separately.
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
Start-service winrm
Import-module MSOnline
$UserCredential = Get-Credential
$Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $UserCredential -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
Import-PSSession $Session
Connect-MsolService -Credential $UserCredential
2. Run the below command to add required SMTP address as an alias.
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "X" -EmailAddresses: @{Add ="Y"}
here X is the Display Name of Office 365 group and Y is the required Email ID.
Eg:- Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test o365Group" -EmailAddresses: @{Add ="WORD1@mail.com"}
3. Promote alias as a primary SMTP address,
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test O365Group" -PrimarySmtpAddress "WORD1@mail.com"
4. Remove first ID using below command.
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test o365Group" -EmailAddresses: @{Remove="WORD@mail.com"}
5. Again Add required Email Address
Eg:- Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test o365Group" -EmailAddresses: @{Add ="word@mail.com"}
6. Promote alias as a primary SMTP address,
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test O365Group" -PrimarySmtpAddress "word@mail.com"
7. Remove first ID using below command.
Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Test o365Group" -EmailAddresses: @{Remove="WORD1@mail.com"}
Please note, For updating the Office 365 group SMTP address required Global Administrator access.Hope this will help you and let me know if you are facing any issue on this.
Thanks and Regards,
