I cannot seem to find out whether I can add my own private domain, i.e. not a business user, but I own a personalised domain, with Office 365 Home Premium.
In other words, I would like to use ******@mydomain.com instead of ******@outlook.com.
I know you can do this with Office 365 for Business, but need to know whether this can be done with Home Premium.
Thanks
Chris
Processes in Microsoft 365 for setting up Office apps, redeeming product keys, and activating licenses.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
To have what you seek/require if you are not prepared to use outlook.com would require that you purchased a Business version of 365 which supports full exchange (Obviously paying for each user)
Or you purchase separately an Exchange host from a third party which can be used in the 365 Home version
You need to have a Hosted Exchange mail account with a Hosted Exchange provider.
Otherwise I don't know what you are talking about.
Appreciate your chiming in, briefly, however it's not clear at all how a Hosted Exchange Account or Accounts for each family member along with an O365 Home Premium subscription addresses the subject of this thread.
A helpful post from you would elaborate on how that would work. If it does work, Microsoft has made solving for a very common family requirement utterly confusing such that otherwise tech savvy folks on this thread have been stymied for a year trying to get something that took 30 minutes to setup on Google Apps for free. Even so, we'd all be interested in this work around.
Err Word 2010 doesn't "support" domains either.
Sorry, I didn't mean that word supports that. I meant that I am still using Office 2010, and because of the situation with the domains in office 365, I will not be upgrading to 365 from 2010.
You can use your own domain with 365 Home, but only if that domain supports the pop or IMAP protocol
You can also create an outlook.com mail account and under your Domain Providers web setting access redirect mail to an alternate address (outlook.com)
Appreciate your response. However, I don't want pop or IMAP...or redirection, setting that for my 6 users including mobile devices is a real problem. Support when my mother has a problem would be a real headache. I'd have to setup 6 ******@outlook.com email addresses, correct? and still have my domain with Google or some other provider who would Pop Forward to these new extraneous emails...confusing and special setup for each users including when they get a new device or PC. For myself a technical user it may be usable but not for my family.
That defeats the purpose of having your own domain. Also, I want my emails to come FROM my email address not x******@outlook.com.
Unless I misunderstand this entirely, POP forwarding is not the answer.
