Purpose
The Outlook on the web application does not natively allow you to set the default "From" address. The SetFrom extension for the Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge web browsers inserts the pre-defined address into the "From" field of each new message. If you have a shared mailbox or a group that you have permission to send as, SetFrom pre-populates the "From" address.
Current version: 1.0.3
What’s new: Changes to the saved address apply to the next new message. Reloading Outlook on the web is no longer needed.
Installation
The SetFrom extension is installed from the Chrome Web Store. The link is included in the email from IvaSoft.
For Google Chrome:
- Open the link from the email in Google Chrome.
- Click Add to Chrome, then click Add extension in the confirmation window. The message "SetFrom has been added to Chrome" confirms the installation.

- Click the Extensions icon (the puzzle piece), click the three dots next to SetFrom, and choose Options. The "SetFrom Options" page opens.

- On the "SetFrom Options" page, enter the default "From" address. Verify that this address appears in the "Addresses to send from" list in your Outlook on the web settings. Click Save.

For Microsoft Edge:
- Open the link from the email in Microsoft Edge.
- Click Get extension in the banner at the top of the page (or the Get button next to the SetFrom name), then click Add extension in the confirmation window. The message "SetFrom is now installed." confirms the installation.

- Click View Extension in the "SetFrom is now installed." message, click ... next to SetFrom, and choose Extension options. The "SetFrom Options" page opens.

- On the "SetFrom Options" page, enter the default "From" address. Verify that this address appears in the "Addresses to send from" list in your Outlook on the web settings. Click Save.

Testing
- In Outlook on the web, go to Settings > Mail > Compose and enable Always show From.

- Create a new message. Verify that the "From" field displays the address you configured in SetFrom Options.
