Password change nagging

When working in a browser, O365 is sending a notification that the user's password is about to expire and needs to be changed. This is great, but if they dismiss the reminder, and don't change passwo...

Sorry Adam Ochs but I think you miss the point.

We have password life, notification time etc. set as we want.

The problem is that if you dismiss the reminder, it pops right back up again the next time you do something in O365. If you spend a lot of time in O365 web apps, you cannot get rid of this pop up. You should at least be able to dismiss it for a day.

That's the intention, the popup is deliberately designed to be as annoying as possible, so you don't miss it. The one about expiring federation certificate is using the same "method", so are some of the EAC ones.

You can always leave feedback on the portal or UserVoice and request to have it changed :)

This is especially annoying when it's telling me my password is expiring... but it isn't expiring for 60 more days.

SharePoint Online is the only thing that has this bad information... nothing else.
