Send Email from Alternative Address

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Using D365 and an On-Premise Exchange server.

How can we send an email where the "From/Reply Address" is different than the default email address?

Example: We have a user that runs a report for customer invoices. We want that report to email the customers as invoice@insertneamehere.com.

    Hi - sending the report itself is usually done using a plugin, because OOB reports can't be sent using Microsoft Dynamics 365, but if I read your question right, you want the FROM address to be different than the user's default email.  This is generally done using a Queue and a workflow.  Here is an article (I realize this article is for Dynamics Online, but the queue/workflow concept is still valid.). 

    If you are using the Email Router to route mail from Dynamics 365 On-Prem and your Exchange Server, and you have set up a Queue with an account on your Exchange Server, then I should think this would work.

    Hi MP4CALDRY,

    There is no such OOB feature.

    So you have to write a plugin for this.

    Please refer to this article: https://community.dynamics.com/crm/b/crmviking/archive/2017/01/26/sending-email-to-an-alternate-secondary-email-address

    This requires you to have C# coding experience.

    Once done, this will be very practical.  :)

    Hope this helps.

    Best Regards,

    Lu Hao
