Use of own domain name with Office 365 Home/Premium

Anonymous

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

    Office 365 Home is licensed for 5 devices using multiple domains in MS Outlook has no baring on any 365 license or device.

    I currently have 3 private domains in use in MS Outlook, as well as the usual suspects

    I wonder how many people actually need Office 365 and how many would have been satisfied with Outlook.com supporting own domain as it was before domains.live stopped this support.

    For me, I aw trying to separate Office Apps handling from the email, contacts, calendar handling, since adding a new member to the domain email should not mean а new Office 365 user (and extra license). I do want a separate domain email for my kids and parents but they don't really need [as many] Office apps.

    Outlook.com is something completely separate to any Domain name and mail provider you may have previously  signed up for.

    You can transfer your existing domain registration and mail supplier to GoDaddy you simply pay them the annual fee

    Outlook.com is a free mail service

    Yeah, I got the email...

    "Did you know that your Office 365 subscription includes a personalized email address for the first year - like ******@smithcrew.com or ******@wallfamily.org - that you can use with your Outlook.com account?"

    Oh and BTW...

    "*Personalized email addresses subject to availability and included for the first year of Office 365 service only. Subscriber should renew domain names directly with GoDaddy or a domain registrar of your choice after the first year; additional charges may apply. "

    So... It only works for one year, then we have to go back to having it hosted by someone else??? Or pay what I know will turn out to be a much higher fee? But I should let my current email hosting lapse in the hopes that Microsoft will beat their price next year? Or chance that I can keep the rate I have now with the current host?

    Oh and I hope my family is no bigger than five. That fourth kid is outta luck.

    Thanks  again, Microsoft!
