Sending Email as Other Email Addresses in Exchange Online

Introduction

You can have multiple email addresses. For example, many people have both an @medschl email address as well as an @cam one. With the migration of medschl email addresses over to Exchange Online both medschl and cam email will show up within the same mailbox. This also applies to those who have some additional mail aliases such as This Institute.

You may wish to be able to choose which email address an email is sent from - even though it will all live in the same mailbox.

This method needs to be done on a per email message basis. If you want to permanently change your default email address, please contact the CSCS Service Desk.
