To change the User Principal Name, execute the following command,

Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName "[email protected]" -NewUserPrincipalName "[email protected]"

The Set-MsolUserPrincipalName cmdlet changes the User Principal Name, or user ID, of a user.

It is not recommended to use different UPN and Mail-id due to the below reasons:

  • User confusion
  • Skype for Business Online
  • Office ProPlus
  • Mobile Applications
  • ActiveSync
