Technical Bulletin: MC365410 · Published Apr 29, 2022 · Last updated Jul 7, 2022
Message Summary
Updated July 7, 2022: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
As a security platform, we strive to continuously improve and protect our customers. In May, we plan to start rolling out a new alert for suspicious activities in an inbound connector. For information on connectors, please visit Configure mail flow using connectors in Exchange Online | Microsoft Docs.
When this will happen:
We will begin rolling out in late May and expect to complete by late July (previously late June).
How this affects your organization:
When suspicious activity (for example: compromise) is detected, relayed mails will be blocked from the inbound connector, and the administrator will receive an email notification and an alert under https://security.microsoft.com/alerts. This alert will provide guidance on how to investigate, revert changes and unblock a restricted connector. To learn how to respond to this alert, please visit: Responding to a Compromised Connector.
Additionally, we will introduce some new changes in the existing Restricted users page (https://security.microsoft.com/restrictedusers) in order to support this improvement. The changes are the following:
Current Experience
Future Experience
