Migrating Hotmail and business domain email accounts to Office 365 Business Essentials.
Chris,
I worked 20 minutes on my reply, then someone Marked It As SPAM.
Not a great place for support after all.
I have more questions...
Correct, see article about connected accounts which ended last year -

In addition regarding the domains it supports a wide range of domain hosts

You would typically add these domains via the TXT/MS= method.
Best, Chris
I'm kinda familiar with the TXT/MS host record routine.
Have you had any success with Forwarding to an Office 365 account from Hotmail, live, etc?I have a university Office 365 account I'll test it with next.
Forwarding wasn't very reliable during my recent tests from outside hosting providers to someone elses Outlook.com account.I really don't understand why Microsoft is pushing Outlook.com users to upgrade to Office 365 Constantly, when its impossible an many cases to setup ones existing accounts and accomplish the same tasks with the Outlook web app in Office 365. (oh yes, profit)
I'll read the articles.
Thanks for your time.- Looks like forwarding from my Outlook.com account to Office 365 account works beautifully.
- Glad it’s worked out and we have got to where you need to be.
Hope I’ve answered your questions!
Best, Chris
