Is it possible to change the From Name of an email (not the sending address) when sending an email from Outlook Exchange?
Is there any add-in that can help us achieve this?
I can see with Exchange only admin can change the sending from name. Is there an alternative?
In general, you can't do that out of the box. The latest version of hosted (M365) Exchange allows to configure a mailbox to send as one of its proxy SMTP addresses, but the sender display name will still be the same.
You can try to use an addin like Proxy Manager (I am its author) - besides allowing to send through any of the mailbox proxy addresses, it also allows an end-user to change the sender display name.

In Api Management Service, when someone subscribes to an Api, they gey a mail from a no-reply address. By default, this mail is something like "apim-noreply#mail.windowsazure.com", I changed this in de settings to "no-reply#myorganization.com".
But now when a user receives an email, both these addresses are listed as the sender address. How do I fix it to only display my custom address and remove the default one (circled in red)?
I tried looking in the mail templates to see if it was present there, but it wasn't.
I tried finding a solution in Microsoft documentation but couldn't find anything.
I understand that you wanted to change the "Mailfrom" header to a value of your choice. Currently it is not possible. The "MailFrom" header contains information about the actual sender of the email since APIM sends the mail you will not be able to remove apim-noreply#mail.windowsazure.com due to security issues.
I came across this as the only other thing I could find that resembled what I'm asking: http://office-outlook.com/outlook-forum/index.php/t/84123/
I'm sending an email through Office 365's SMTP server as a notification that a form was submitted to my company email address (me#company.com) from our company RSVP email address (rsvp#company.com). I am setting the From Name to be the full name of the person filling out the form and the reply-to email as the person's email address textbox.
Here is an example of what part of the message header might look like:
To: <me#company.com>
From: Test User <rsvp#company.com>
Reply-To: <test.user#gmail.com>
In Outlook, since rsvp#company.com is an actual mailbox within our company, it automatically displays the sender name as "RSVP" (which I suppose is what was set when the mailbox was created). Is there a way to bypass this and display the sender name in the message header instead?
No. Exchange always resolves all sender and recipient names to their primary SMTP address and default name. Just the way Exchange works.
You can extract MIME headers and modify the message sender related properties on the client side after the message is received using Extended MAPI (C++ or Delphi) or Redemption (I am its author - use RDOSession.CreateOneOffEntryID / RDOSession.GetAddressEntryFromID / set RDOMail.Sender and RDOMail.Get_SentOnBehalfOf / RDOMail.Save). Note that OOM will not let you set the sender related properties even using MailItem.PropertyAccessor.
I have an Exchange 2013 server.
Faced with a strange issue of email delivery what I can not solve.
Exchange is rejecting email
if one of the recipients is not exist in a domain
Email will be rejected totally and sender will receive NDR for not existing user.
scenario:
Exchange mailboxes user#domain.com // valid user
user1#domain.com //**user mailbox is not exist**
Sending email from external domain to my exchange server:
TO: user#domain.com,user1#domain.com
Reciving NDR Remote Server returned '550 5.1.1 RESOLVER.ADR.RecipNotFound;
valid user didn't receive email also.
email is rejected
.
I start to google and found that How do I reject incoming email for unknown users in MS Exchange 2013?
exchange has a user validation feature that is enabled by default
I disable it on a console restart transport role.
Set-RecipientFilterConfig -RecipientValidationEnabled $false
run the same scenario again
user#domain.com, user1.domain.com
I receive NDR for not existing user.
but email was delivered to valid user.
Is it a normal behavior for exchange?
What is right by RFC deliver for valid users or reject email?
how it will affect our server hit the public spam list?
Does this not reduce our spam filter resistance?
Please advice.
Thank you.
It's normal for Exchange to send an NDR for non existing users. As you already said, this might also trigger some spam lists because you are sending out mails (NDR) to possible spam honey pots.
A better way to do this would be to have your external MTA (the server which accepts the mail from the internet) check the recipients and refuse to accept mail for non existent email addresses. This way you would never have to send out NDR reports, as the server trying to deliver mail would be informed that it cannot deliver and notifies the sender itself.
I belong to a email group in the company I work for, such as for example, researchteam#company.com. My personal email is raulmercado#company.com. I want to send emails from researchteam#company.com instead of raulmercado#company.com. I'm using Microsoft Outlook and Exchange as a Email Server.
Thanks for your help!
If you using Outlook 2010 then you could try MailItem.SendUsingAccount property.
Here is an example
Exchange always sends out all emails coming from the default email address. And for each Exchange mailbox this default address is fixed and can not be changed in Outlook. You can use one of two options:
You can create an additional mailbox in Exchange for the second address (as the default email there of course) and then give your normal account "Send-As" rights for that new account. Then you can switch on the "FROM" field in Outlook (right-click options > Show Fields > From) and use that field to select the account you want to send from. In Outlook 2013 you can also just connect to the additional Exchange account and might get slighly easier switching.
You can use a 3rd party tool like ChangeSender (http://www.servolutions.com/changesender.htm) to get automatic switching of the accounts when you answer email (answered automatically with the account the email was received under).
Hope this helps - Claus
I am trying to send email to a Lotus Notes group from a Lotus Notes application, But email is sent to Outlook group with same name. Is there any way that email be sent to LN group not to exchange group.
Here LN is not used for mailing anymore. It is done by Exchange.
Yes this is possible. Making a few assumptions about your setup it sounds like at one of our clients. Domino is used for apps but exchange for email, with domino routing mail via exchange.
The the domain is something like xyz.com then sending a mail to "MyGroup" will go to MyGroup.xyz.com and via exchange.
To send just to domino you need to use the Local primary Internet domain which is configured under the Messaging\Domains section in server config on Conversions tab. In our case it's domino.xyz.com so sending a mail to mygroup#domino.xyz.com would go to domino and not routed to exchange
Set your Notes group's type as 'Access Control List' only, so it won't be considered a mailable name.
