Send email from an alias with Outlook on the web

Send emails using an alias in Outlook on the web. Your messages will show your alias address as the sender and disguise your primary email address.

Note: Currently, sending from aliases is in Microsoft’s Public Preview mode. You can explore and test an unreleased feature in Public Preview, but it might have issues or bugs. Our GoDaddy Guides can't troubleshoot any issues for features in Public Preview, so please use this feature at your own risk. Learn more from Microsoft, including how to provide feedback.

Step 1: Turn on sending from aliases

By default, sending email from aliases is turned off. An admin needs to turn it on it in the Exchange admin center first. For more info, see admin roles from Microsoft.

  1. Sign in to the Exchange admin center. Use your Microsoft 365 email address and password (your GoDaddy username and password won't work here).
  2. Select Settings, then Mail flow.
  3. Select the checkbox next to Turn on sending from aliases.
    select checkbox to turn on sending with aliases
  4. Select Save. You'll see a message confirming your changes.

Required: Before you can send email as an alias, an admin needs to add an alias to your account. Users can’t create aliases.

  8. If you don't see the From field in the message you're composing, select Options and then select Show From.
