I am referring to the notification email from this website which will be sent to your email.

For me it is from us.khoros-mail.com domain.

Are you seeing the same behavior?

I am curious why it is from this domain?

I get Microsoft Community e-mails from that domain (khoros-mail.com), as well. It would be nice of them to mention it somewhere on this website so we'd know that updates should come from something that isn't a Microsoft domain; if it is mentioned somewhere, I missed it. When I checked around for Khoros, I saw that they work with Microsoft products, but didn't find anything stating that they were an official partner who handled communications for the community. Even if it did, if that statement isn't coming from Microsoft, they or literally anyone else could say that they are. I never would've imagined Microsoft would use an outside domain for something like this!
