Microsoft 365 Tenants Need Vanity Domains to Send External Email

MOERA domains and threshold for outbound email

Microsoft will impose a throttling limit for external recipients for tenants that use MOERA domain addresses to send outbound email. The limit is designed to stop tenants using mailboxes with primary SMTP addresses from MOERA domains from sending email, a technique that’s often used by spammers. This shouldn’t cause a problem for legitimate organizations who already have vanity domains, but it might stop some spam.

Improved DKIM Configuration Page is Prompt to Check Domains

A new Microsoft 365 DKIM management page is a good prompt to check that all domains used to send email in n Office 365 tenant are configured properly for DKIM. The process of enabling DKIM and key rotation is easily done through the GUI or PowerShell once the correct CNAME records are in DNS.
