How to Set / Change Your Default Outlook Email Account

Typically the first email account set within your Outlook account is activated as your Default email account for sending emails. Sometimes due to business requirements, this might need to be changed to an email account that is shared with other users e.g an info@yourbusiness.com.au email account

Please note this will only work if the email account you wish to be a default account is a licenced mailbox.

1 Open Outlook

2 Select File

3 Select Account Settings

4 Select Account Settings Again

In the dialogue box, you will notice your email accounts and the default mailbox is shown with the Tick next to it.

5 Select the mailbox you would like to set as the default mailbox.

6 Select the Set as Default option.

7 Select close.

8 Restart Outlook.
