"Send As" by default in Groups on Outlook for Desktop

Question

Is there any way to automatically set the "From" address as the Group's address when replying to or creating a new email in Outlook from Microsoft 365 Apps for Business Desktop? I confirmed that Delegates are set properly to a test group, and I was able to replicate the functionality as I described in the Outlook Web app.

Below you may find a link to roadmap 85633. We are aware that the functionality may only be available on the Web app, however, we are looking for either confirmation or some way to implement a workaround.

Thank you.

Hi @SAW-CM ,

Welcome to our forum!

As far as I know, this feature is currently available in OWA, and not supported in Outlook desktop.

Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. With requirements like this increase, the problem may well be released in the future. What I can do for you at present is to submit a suggestion for you, and you can also make a suggestion via this link.
Thanks for your understanding.
