Exchange Online Protection SPF record

[RNalivaika]

Hi, I have received a message sent via Exchange Online host IPv6 "2603:10a6:20b:c0::31". The message was marked as spam because of SPF fail. Subnet "2603:10a6:20b:c0::/64" is not in the list of O365 servers Microsoft provides: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/enterprise/urls-and-ip-address-ranges#exchange-online

I see this type of thing happening quite often, both with IPv4 and IPv6 hosts in Exchange Online , with messages sent by legit senders via Exchange Online. What would be the right procedure to deal with this? more than registering a case in O365 admin portal.. Thanks, Ruslan

If you think these messages are being sent by legit Exchange Online senders, then I would say it is the senders responsibility to check and modify their SPF records accordingly to ensure all legitimate entries are included.

@PeterRisingsender's SPF is OK

"v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all"

but the IP of the exchange online transport server used was not in the list of host in spf.protection.outlook.com , message header states "protection.outlook.com does not designate 'sample ip here' as permitted sender". BR, Ruslan

I'm facing the same issue in certain circumstances. Did you happen to find a solution for this?
