Obviously, it is a GREAT idea to do so. And we have documented how to auth using OAuth for SMTP: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/client-developer/legacy-protocols/how-to-authenticate-an-imap-pop-smtp-application-by-using-oauth I am not aware of any plans for retiring SMTP as a protocol. I am not aware of that having been on any roadmap of any kind.Re: Exchange 2016 continually starting/completing internal schema upgradesIt is hard to say what might be going on. I checked with someone else and we both agree that this is unusual as a permanent situation. - Do you by any chance have DAG members that are on a different CU level? - Does Exchange Health Checker call anything specific out? https://aka.ms/ExchangeHealthChecker - When did this start?Re: Using the New Exchange Admin Centre to add senders to distribution list in delivery managementHmmm... can you send me screenshots or steps, Vasil? I don't know that I fully get it. Is this adding the same user that has two different SMTP addresses or ?Re: Exchange 2013 CU21 coexistence with Exchange 2019 AD requirementsPlease see "AD forest functional level" table in the Exchange Server Supportability Matrix here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/plan-and-deploy/supportability-matrix?view=exchserver-2019#supported-active-directory-environmentsRe: Exchange Upgrade 2019 CU9 to CU11After looking at support tickets, I do not think this is directly related to an issue with a CU. In other words - we got no tickets like this that would indicate that something in the CU is causing this. I have found an older support ticket indicating that there might have been an issue with a web.config file, though, and replacing the file has sorted this problem out. But please make sure that you back up the current version and also - I have no way of knowing if you have any custom settings in the web.config that would need to be transferred over. If still stuck, please open a ticket with support as that would probably need to be next.Re: Assigning a license removes other licensesThis should not reproduce anymore since Friday (when the issue was fixed). Can you please check again?Re: Assigning a license removes other licensesThanks for the tag, Vasil... reached out to people who will be able to fix it...Re: Deleting a user is brokenAh, now I get it; I understand what you are referring to; thanks for added detail! You are referring to a "wizard" that is available when when you delete the user with a mailbox in Microsoft 365 Admin Portal. Basically go to Active users for a licensed user with a mailbox, and then un the user flyout select Delete user. Then on the next page with options, you get an option to "Give another user access to (user you are deleting) mailbox. You get a guided experience which would allow you to essentially "move" the mailbox ownership to another account. I do not think it is right though that it would do it in a way that would result in no account; yes, the account is disabled for logon and the mailbox is 'delegated' to another person by giving them full rights. But the user account is still needed, and if deleted, that mailbox would "go away". I am sorry I simply do not know of any way that a mailbox can exist (or eve did exist) with no account because there is no "anchor account" for it. BTW What Vasil was referring to was a way to convert the user to a shared mailbox via Exchange Admin Center (EAC) or Exchange PowerShell. But all of those ways require a shared mailbox to have an account.Re: Deleting a user is brokenThis very thing. Deleting the user would always result in mailbox being disconnected (therefore loss of access to the mailbox). Shared mailboxes in Exchange Online must have the user account associated with them; by default this user account will not be enabled for direct logon but user account has to exist whether the shared mailbox was created anew or the user mailbox has been converted to a shared mailbox. This is expected design. The mailbox cannot exist on it's own without a user account. Note also that if the mailbox is converted from user to shared, the password for the user account should be reset too.Re: Microsoft 365 E5 Compliance license creating mailboxes for mail users (which we do not want) Brandon Hofmann do you mind telling me exact name of the Compliance offering you speak of? I expect it is to be found under Billing > Products & services in the M365 portal (this link should take you there). Re: Shared Mailbox can have a password and login enabled without license Yeah this will not work; the real solution for this is coming, though, but it will be in Outlook Mobile: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?featureid=32571 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?featureid=32572 Re: Change O365 group email address using powershell @Vasil - let me know if you have specifics as in ticket numbers where support gives such an explanation. I already posted on that thread also. Thank you! Re: Issue with group calendars deleting entries (past and futur) Hi everyone! Really sorry to hear that you have had issues like this. :( I have to admit that I have not seen this pop up on support calls as of yet. Any of you who had (or still have) this problem - do you mind emailing me with some details? - If you had a support ticket with us on this, please send me the ticket number - the name / email of the group that has this problem / when you had the problem last Please don't post the information in here, just email me directly; maybe with a subject of "Group calendar issues" or something. Email ninob AT microsoftDOTcom. I'll work with engineering directly to see what is going on here, and will likely get back to you with more questions. :)
