Sending an email from an alias

You can send and receive emails as an alias that your administrator configures for you.

Recipients outside your organization will see your alias address as the sender instead of your primary address. For more information on configuring aliases, see Editing users' email addresses.


Note
Sending email from an alias is not supported for EWS clients or ActiveSync mobile devices.

If you send an email from an alias to a recipient within the organization, the recipient will still be the primary address.

For more information on sending emails as an alias, see Working with aliases.

To send an email from an alias

  1. In the Amazon WorkMail web app, click the email icon on the toolbar, and then click + New item, New email.
  2. Under From, enter the alias from which you want to send the email.

Tip
To use a display name, use the standard SMTP format Your Name <youralias@example.com>. When you are ready to send the email, click Send.
