I have a mailbox which sends automatically confirmations to customers about their bookings. Each day this account is blocked by the security system and should be released manually from Security portal. The messages are detected somehow as phishing but they are not phishing or spam. How can I avoid the blocking of the mailbox?

Hi @AtanasM,
To avoid the blocking of the mailbox you can try to whitelist the mailbox:
o whitelist the mailbox and ensure that messages from its email address are trusted by the security system, you can take the following specific steps in Microsoft Exchange:
Access Exchange Admin Center (EAC):
Navigate to "Mail Flow":
Select "Rules":
Create a New Rule:
Name the Rule:
Configure the Rule Conditions:
Set the Action:
Save the Rule:

Can you find the exact reason the mailbox is being blocked in Defender? It may be because it's exceeding some limits (check your outbound anti-spam policy). Generally Microsoft limit outgoing mail to protect both the service and their sending reputation. They recommend using third party services for bulk mail if it exceeds the limits.
