Query severity of forthcoming O365 Auto-forwarding policy change
ExMSW4319 To answer your question, as I understand, yes.
"Once the policy takes effect messages that are being automatically forwarded outside the organization will be blocked and non-delivery report (NDR) will be sent to the user."
But they also posted this.
"We understand that some organizations already have users automatically forwarding messages outside the organization and we will provide additional time and communications to enable transition to the new policy controls. For these organizations we will communicate via Message center with more details on when the change will impact your specific tenant."
*edit* Sorry Mark, didn't notice you'd already replied.
Thanks to both posters for your answers.
ChristianBergstrom- yes, I saw that last line in our Message Center feed and was a bit surprised by it. Are they saying that individual messages will be sent through Message Center to alert tenants as to when the crucial change will occur on their tenancy? I did not know MC could do that.
ExMSW4319 I believe so. I've seen messages on one tenant that has used a specific feature advising that was going to be retired, but not on another which never used the feature.
I suspect there are all kinds of analytics going on in the background keeping track on how people are using M365.
