Office365 support incompetant - All emails marked as spam due to hyperlinks in email siganture
- Jul 29, 2019
Hello all,
This thread has come to my attention. Let me fix some misconceptions:
Office 365 absolutely does scan messages "on the way out". This is done to protect our IP reputation. If a message is deemed spammy, then it will be marked as spam and sent out via a special pool of IPs. This pool of IPs has questionable reputation and we do not attempt to maintain their reputation. We do absolutely monitor the reputation of our good IP addresses - so much so that I'm fairly certain that is not an issue here.
Most often, I do see false positives happening when someone creates an automated email signature with links in them. A false positive requires a spam rule to be adjusted on our side. This is simple -
1) First report the problem in Submissions Explorer
2) If not getting headway, open a ticket - we just need the samples with the full headers showing what happened so that our engineering team can correct the rule. It is an easy fix - if you're not getting the help you need from the support, point them to this post as guidance.
I apologize for any inconvenience.
Regards,
Scott
Terence Tellis I am a little late to this party but we are having a similar problem with O365. Any email sent from any email system (gmail, yahoo, office email) to an Office 365 mailbox with our domain, carotrans.com in text in the body is getting flagged as spam with a weight of 5. It does not have to be a hyperlink, just the text. Microsoft support has been totally useless. I have not been able to find any way to get this removed. Some have said it will correct itself after a few weeks but like Terence, this is affecting many of our customers and severely impacting our business.
If anyone has any idea how to fix this, it will be greatly appreciated.
