Office 365 Weekly digest
Hi everyone,
I have two users without global administrator rights, who receive the "Weekly digest: Office 365 changes". They do not have access to the admin center and therefore they are not able to unsubscribe.
I actually thought that the digest only was sent to administrators.
Thanks a lot in advance for helping me out.
Cheers,
Steen

Adding Brian Levenson to the conversation in case there is anything else worth checking for these unexplained weekly digest emails to non-admins.
Also, just to add there is a new upcoming Message center non-admin role coming out by around mid-2018:
I'd really recommend tcfinney Office 365 Weekly Digest blog series, out every Monday, that is readymade for bringing people up-to-speed with recent Office 365 changes and updates.

That's true by default but other addresses can be designated:
Here is the official guidance - Can I get message center posts emailed instead?
Yes! You can select to have a weekly digest emailed to you and up to two email addresses. If you need to have the digest go to more than two more people, you can send to an Office 365 group or distribution list. The emailed weekly digest is turned on by default. If you aren't getting your weekly digests, check your spam folder. See the Set preferences section of this article for more information on how to set up the weekly digest.
So, check those settings out and see if these non-admins can be removed accordingly from this option.
I'm aware of the message center and I'm the only, who has activated the weekly digest:
But I have created an user account less than a week ago and he gets the digest as well. We only have two administrators in the tenant including my account and the mail only goes to the primary mail address.
Which other possibilities do I have to unsubscribe?
- If the emails are erroneously being sent to recipients and can't be explained as indicated through those settings or via something else like email rules etc. I'd consider logging a service request, though you might get an official response here.
Good luck.
Someone added them to receive the weekly digest?
Seriously, something happened to make them receive the digest. This doesn't happen accidentally. The digest can go to anyone, they do not have to be administrators - some people add the address of an Office 365 Group or a Team channel so that everyone in the tenant can see the digest.
