Blocking of Outlook desktop using Conditional Access also effects Skype for Business and MS Teams.
C Edwards VasilMichev I would like to add in here that the reverse holds true. We have enacted conditional access for Teams on mobile devices for select users- granting access to mobile devices which meet the requirements. This prevents users from receiving email on their devices until they sign into Intune and set up the company portal. Generally, this wouldn't be a big deal.
However, we are migrating users from on-prem to 365, and we do not set up Intune on devices until the mailbox is migrated. Therefore, this policy effectively halted email to a number of phones for users who 1) had not installed Teams on their phone yet, 2) had email already on their devices, and 3) should not have been made aware of any background change.
I suppose a valid workaround would be to create a new AD group which users are moved into after being migrated, and then configure Intune to manage this group- but this information should be provided upfront (i.e. the applications are interdependent, and if one is blocked so shall be others, etc.).
*editing - Is it certain that Teams cannot be managed by conditional access without affecting mail flow as well?
