We use Microsoft 365 / Outlook for our emails.

 

What we would like to do is, when someone submits a form, send the customer an automatic email from a shared email. Right now we use sales@company.com in a distribution list. 

 

In Zapier, I tried setting the “From” address to sales@company.com and I got an error saying that outlook could not send from sales@comany.com and to try something else.

 

How can I accomplish what I’m trying to do? 

Hi @rwood_ryan 

Good question.

Did you connect the Outllook account for that email address to Zapier?

Does Microsoft Outlook need any special plan pricing?

You would need to either have an Office 365 subscription, a Microsoft live.com account with Outlook or individual purchase of Microsoft Exchange Online subscriptions.

On-premises Exchange servers are not supported.

@Troy Tessalone I connected my email address, which is the owner of the distribution (shared email). That didn’t work. Microsoft has a concept of “distributions” which are used for shared emails.

Please post a screenshot of the encountered error.
