How to set up email Aliases in Office 365

If you would like all mail for 'example@yourdomain.net.au' to be delivered to the email account for admin@yourdomain.net.au, you can set this up using an Email Alias.
Note: When the user replies, the From address will be the primary email address.


Step 1 - Log into your Office 365 Management Area.


Step 2 - Select Users then Active Users.




Step 3 - Click on the user in question, then select Manage email aliases. You won't see this option if the person doesn't have a license assigned to them.




Step 4 - Select + Add an alias and enter a new alias for the user, confirming the domain you'd like to use. If you'd like to use a domain that's not in this list, you can add it here. Save Changes once done.




Once the Alias is added, you will see a confirmation notice as below.




If you need to remove these Aliases in future, you can follow steps 1-3 and then use the Delete icon on the Manage Aliases page.
