    I want to allow to send as email from external email addresses. E.g. I have the tenant organization name Firm.com and user name john.doe@firm.com.
    Now this john.doe has second email address name john.doe@gmail.com. He want to send email from OWA/Outlook Anywhere send as john.doe@gmail.com.

    How is this to configure?

    t. Susanna

    You have to add AnonymousUsers to your receive-connector. Try this:

     

    Set-ReceiveConnector -PermissionGroups 'AnonymousUsers, ExchangeUsers, ExchangeServers, ExchangeLegacyServers' -Identity 'Server\Default Server'

     

    You put in the name of the connector where I wrote 'Server\Default Server'.

    Hi,

    You cannot send email from secondary email address in outlook or owa (except if you configure your outlook profile using pop for secondary email address).

    In your case you can create a MailContact object in exchange, with external email address as "john.doe@gmail.com" and then add send as permission on this contact object for user john.doe@firm.com like this:

    Get-MailContact john.doe@gmail.com | dd-ADPermission -User John.doe@firm.com -AccessRights ExtendedRight -ExtendedRights "send as"

    and then you would be able to SendAs john.doe@gmail.com.

    As gmail.com is is a proprietary domain for google, I m not sure, whether you would be able to use it in real world to use in SendAs feature, but in my LAB it does work.

    This error often occurs on Hosted Exchange, bcoz in some commands, identity is not simply putting email address, we have to specify identity as orgName\emailAddress like this:

    Get-MailContact firm.com\john.doe@gmail.com | add-ADPermission -User john.doe@firm.com -AccessRights ExtendedRight -ExtendedRights "send as"

    Hi Laeeq,

    I have tried to with orgname\alias, with distinguishedname, indentity...with many different variations and there is always same error. I can add send as permission manually in ADUC, but I still want to do in management shell. Have you any idea why this way doesn't work in my environment?

    Although configuring a gmail account as secondary successfully, it is possible that many mail relays reject your message when check the MX and SPF records, and mail never reach destination.

    Hi,

    Its strange. Once you get the object using get command then in next command it should exist.

    I have run this command locally on both generic Exchange and Hosted Exchange 2010, and at places command is running fine.

    Are you able to get the mail contact object using get-MailContact like this:

     

    get-MailContact distinguishedname

Or

get-MailContact orgname\alias 

Or

Get-MailContact  "firm.com\john.doe@gmail.com"


     IF so then its really strange. Also try by adding a -DomainController parameter to command like this 

    Get-MailContact  "firm.com\john.doe@gmail.com" -DomainController "YourDCNameHere" | add-ADPermission -User john.doe@firm.com -AccessRights ExtendedRight -ExtendedRights "send as" -DomainController "YourDCNameHere"

    Did you find a solution to this? 

    I have almost the same problem in our hosting solution (SP1 /hosted)

    The difference is that Im trying to add a sec group (universal) with 'send as' rights to a shared mailbox.

    I do however get the same error "mailbox wasn't found etc..."

    Use the Add-RecipientPermission cmdlet to add SendAs permission to users in a cloud-based or hosted organization.

    Add-RecipientPermission is the way to go when using Ex2010 sp1 /hosted

    Thanks to Dmitry who provided the solution for me on a problem Ive been having for a long time!

    I think the technet article is "wrong" tho; "Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP2" Our solution is SP1, and Add-RecipientPermission works! :)
