Step 1: Add an address you own

On your computer, open Gmail.
In the top right, click Settings and then See all settings.
Click Accounts and Imports tab.
In Send mail as section, click Add another email address you own option.
In the form provide, in field (1) type the Group name that shows up when you send an email with this address.
In field (2) type in the group email address. Uncheck option (3) so this email is not treated as your nickname.
Click on Next step button to proceed to following step.

Before using this email address to send emails, Google requires that you verify this email ownership.
Click on Send verification button to let Google send a verification code to the group email.
When Google sends a verification to the group email, you will also receive it in your personal email inbox since you're a member of that group.

So, just copy the code and move on to next step.

Next, go back to verification page then paste the code you just copied from your inbox.

If all is set properly, you should now see your group email added in the Send mail as section.
If you would like to reply to emails sent to group email address using a group email, leave Reply from the same address option checked.

Now as a member of the group, you don't stop at only receiving emails sent to group email. But also send and reply to emails using group email.
During email composition, just click on the dropdown icon to choose a group email address.

Add only the members who need the send-as feature to the group.
This is important, because anyone in the group during the send-as setup will get the confirmation code/link.
If your group is already populated, you can either remove/re-add users, or simply change their email delivery settings to "no email" during setup.

To send as a Google Group reflecting the groups email address, you will want to follow these steps
