Incomplete sync of Exchange Message Moderation settings to Office 365 / Exchange Online

We setup message moderation for some of our distribution lists. We still have an Exchange 2010 server in hybrid with no mailboxes on premise that via AD Connect goes to Office 365 / Exchange Online. ...

    Reading here the msExchBypassModerationLink attributed has been supported by AADConnect since version 1.1.524.0

     

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/reference-connect-sync-attributes-synchronized

     

    So it appears to be a bug where Azure AD isn't anchoring the attribute to only be controlled by on-premises.

I am getting the same experience as you for both Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013 Hybrid labs. I haven't had the chance to test in Exchange 2016.

 

msExchBypassModerationLink is successfully synchronised from on-premises through AADConnect and reflected in Exchange Online EAC, however I can simply add and remove users at my desire for moderator bypass, where making other changes are blocked because the object is synchronised from on-premises via AADConnect.
