Sending an e-mail from another e-mail address
If you have a functional e-mail address, you may also want to send mails from that address. Note that you may need to authorise them to send mail from a specific address. In most cases, you get the right to 'Send on behalf of' someone else.

In the Outlook Client
- Write a new e-mail
- Options tab -> Show From button:
- With the additional button you can select an 'Additional E-mail Address....' from the address book
In Outlook Web Access
- New e-mail
- Button '...'
- Sender View
- You may have to remove the first suggested sender in the 'From' field before you can select another sender
- If the 'From' field is empty, you can search for the desired sender by starting to type
