Alias address on sent email – Please

07. August 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , ,
I have had a hotmail address since God was a boy (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***), all my family and friends know it and use it when we exchange email.  I would like to keep my original hotmail address just for family and friends so I opted for an Alias Outlook address (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) on the hotmail account with its own inbox.

The above works great and I receive Alias Outlook email straight into the specified inbox.

Problem: Say I receive an Alias Outlook addressed email (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) into my Alias Outlook inbox and I want to reply to it without giving my name and original hotmail address (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) in the From: address section of the email I'm sending as a reply - how on earth do I do that?  

 The Alias thing is a great idea but if I can't reply to Alias addressed email using the Alias address - I don't really see the point of it - I might just as well go and open another fresh email account using an Alias name.

If the above is just me being DOH and Alias email can be replied to showing the Alias address and not my personal hotmail address I'd be really grateful to know how.

Thank you all.
