How to Send an Email with Any From: Address in Outlook

You can set up multiple email accounts in Outlook, and they can all have their (or your) own email address associated with them. This address will automatically appear in the From: line you send from the account.

But you do not have to set up a new account to send an email from a certain address — to unsubscribe from a newsletter you still get forwarded form an old account, for example.
