Use of own domain name with Office 365 Home/Premium

Of course feedback is good, sorry, no offense intended. And: oh yes, I did so wait for this - didn't expect this day to come any more. Especially as this is actually not reflected in any of the publically available roadmaps for O365.

But still I'm not sure I understand what your problem with the first address (for your own account) is:

You say you can generate it (which is also what your screenshot shows).

So your first try didn't work, but a day later it did?

I did generate mine perhaps 30 min after connecting the domain and it worked immediately. 

I just deleted it and created a new one - also works.

From my point of view I can also not yet see the feature to add other users as @szymonBis reports, and certainly I can not see a way to add extra addresses on top of that... But let's wait and see.

Isn't that obvious?

Btw: For me it's also not active yet. But I'm not in a hurry.

You are completly right. But like you can see this item on the forum was started a few years ago. Knowing that we all are curious even if we only have beta access.

My reply was ment to give feedback to @szymonBis like he asked. I think this is the purphos of Beta is to test and give feedback so we can help other users.

So my point about the personal emailof a second users is like i mention and you also a posibillity of the delay in the rollout.

My second point of the problem when adding my own personal mail adres is something new and i tought good to mention so people that has the same problem and found a solution can share this.

Dont you agree ?

Isn't that obvious?

This feature is still beta. 

What you ask for is not available for all users yet.

It even says so in the FAQ:

Please note that while this feature is rolling out, Office 365 Home shared users may not be able to set up a personalized email address, even if the owner of the Office 365 Home subscription is able to do so. 

Why don't you just wait until it's ready?

Btw: For me it's also not active yet. But I'm not in a hurry.

Since my previous post a little change has been made by MS. Now I'm able to set personalized email addresses to other members of my O365 subscription.

Keep us posted if you still have any issues with that.

I did redo the wizard. This is the result:

• My domain was OK and the line came in green. So Godaddy settings are ok.
• Next step was making my personel email *** Email address is removed for privacy *** --> Here i have the problem that the circle symbol is runing with " wait for Validation" and it stays running even after 5min.
• i did deleted my personal e-mail in my ms aliassen and even waited fo 1 day before starting this wizard.
• As a test i changed the name in the section before @mydomain.be --> imidiatly OK.
• After this trying to make a second personal mail adres for my second user. I cant find any add buton for this. Also not in the profile of the other user. This problem i coud retrive in the manual. Here MS is saying that this is possible because aff the roll out delay on all users.

So for the second user i have to wait. For my first problem i dont know. Any idea ??

for the moment i did a rollback so my mail can work.

@szymonBis

Are you sure thath only the name server from your domain has to be actif on Godaddy. My domain stays with my original provider and i would make a "DNS off site zone" on Godaddy. If i start running the outlook wizard for adding personal domains to my mail it gives remark " No such domain exist by Godaddy".

Wil it only work after i changed the name server to godaddy , even if i made the DNS zone in front.

Yes, I'm sure of that. I've got such configuration already running. I presume you didn't wait for propagating NS record changes . It may take even 24-48 hours. In my case it took about one hour. Just check NS records against some public DNS server (other than GoDaddy's and your legacy domain registrar's).

Since my previous post a little change has been made by MS. Now I'm able to set personalized email addresses to other members of my O365 subscription.

For others maybe it is worth to mention that this new feature is available for me at Outlook beta web interface only (try the beta switch near top right corner).

Keep us posted if you still have any issues with that.
