This feature may not be available for your account.
How do I send mail from a different e-mail address?
- In Outlook Web App, click Inbox > New > Message.
- In the new message dialog box, click From, and then select the e-mail address you want to use from the drop-down list.
- When you're done composing the message, click Send.
What else do I need to know?
- If you don't see the connected account listed in the From drop-down list, check that you've verified ownership of that account so you can send using that account's address. To check, click Options > Account > Connected Accounts, and then click the link for the connected account, which is displayed in the Action column. This will resend a verification e-mail to your connected account. Then sign in to that account and click the link in the verification e-mail. After you do this, you'll be able to send mail using that address in Outlook Web App.
