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.
Microsoft has stated that custom domains won't be a feature for the new Office365 Home/Personal/Premium. That is reserved for Business accounts.
Apparently there was the service "Outlook.com premium" available in the US only that did offer the required function (set your Domain to MS-MX entries to allow mail natively to be handled on putlook.com Servers).
However that product apparently has been discontinued "October 2017" - YESTERDAY!!! (bad luck for me).
It says there that it was discontinued because a lot of features are made available to O365 home/personal now.
Well, I'll hold my fingers crossed, But I don't believe it just yet that incorporating an external Domain will just appear in my account.
Let's see.
And: yes, it's too sad they don't offer this. What a waste of customer binding to your product-opportunity.
I can't believe it's still not possible to use a custom personal domain with Office 365 Home.
When I contacted Microsoft support teams, they have no clue what I'm even requesting. After one hour on the phone, being transferred to various teams, I gave up.
If I were to use Google Suite, it's simple to associate a domain name. Incredibly frustrating that Microsoft can't offer this.
Hi DMcHenryABC,
Did you get this set up? My personal domain is hosted with GoDaddy. Does GoDaddy host the email side of things too or is it done through Outlook (Office365Home)? I'm still trying to work out how I can get this going. I was looking at setting up Business Essentials if I don't find a workaround - hence the reason I'm writing to find out what you ended up doing. I don't have any more than 1 email address, something I've had for 20 years, I don't see why I should change it now. thanks
I have had the same struggle with Microsoft Office Support as everyone else. After thinking about it I might have a solution but would want the rest of you to let me know whether or not this solution actually works . . .
Office 365 Business integrates with your personal Domain through GoDaddy. So, what would prevent us from using GoDaddy to activate our Domain, create emails for each of our family members in that domain and then let them use one of the five licenses available in Office 365 Home to access Outlook with their new DNS email address?
If you wanted to manage the domain through Office 365, you would have to still purchase one license of Office 365 Business, but you could then use that for yourself and keep the Office 365 Home for up to 5 family members.
Sounds plausible so I am curious what you all think.
