r/Office365

Several of my clients and I have mail hosted through MS365. This past week, we've all gotten the same spam/phishing emails that appear to be from DocuSign about signing NDAs.

One of these clients, however, is behind an external spam filter that logs all of the incoming email, and these emails do not show up in the logs. That means that these emails are not coming through the mail server listed in their MX Records, but are somehow getting sent directly to their inbox from within Microsoft, right?

Another client received these emails sent from his own address, spoofed. Normally, the DMARC/DKIM records should prevent this, correct? Unless the spammers are able to bypass those checks.

How do we stop this spam from within the system?

Is there a way to block inbound emails from specific countries?

I setup the spam filter and it only marks it as spam, it doesn't block it. it sends it to quarantine and asks the user to review it which is basically the same thing as sending it to the user.

I have done some searching on Reddit for an answer to my question but have not found anything. I am aware of several choices of what to switch to, but it isn't clear if I can transfer all of my files and have them remain intact and editable. I have well over ten years of things saved there and for the last six years I have been putting my artwork there, mostly for basic layout but also for design ideas and so many other things that cannot be locked up into a PDF. Any one of my art files could be needed in the future so this is very important.

Thoughts?

I've cancelled Office 365 and need to download everything I've ever stored in the MS cloud (47 GB) to my C drive (I've got enough space). I've searched reddit, searched MS help, searched everywhere but can't find an answer to my particular question: How to download ALL my cloud-stored files to my C drive without having to do it one at a time. I've got about a week left before they delete my files. Please help!

Hello I have been playing with copilot to create a new tax client tracker for my job. I am having issues with the directions. I am not seeing the same thing that copilot and other tutorials are describing. I am using the online SharePoint and Power Automation. Am I missing something?

Been following cybersecurity trends and it feels like things are getting more complex with new tools and threats all the time. While security is improving, managing everything can still be overwhelming.

Do you feel cybersecurity is actually improving, or just becoming harder to handle?

the formatting doesn't always follow nicely if you just use web word to open a docx that was created and formatted in desktop winword. My problem files aren't anything crazy, but the tables and lines get all out of joint.

Are there any tools or techniques that could quickly fix about 50 documents faster than manually recreating them?

thx

Buongiorno a tutti,
ho già provato a cercare qualche informazione ma senza trovare nulla di realmente utile, quindi conto in un vostro consiglio.

È la prima volta che mi trovo in questa situazione: ho un cliente con due tenant Microsoft, ciascuno con un dominio di posta differente. L’esigenza è quella di effettuare una fusione, in modo che tutti gli utenti utilizzino lo stesso dominio di posta.

Se non erro, non è possibile mantenere due tenant separati con lo stesso dominio; sarà quindi necessario convergere tutto su un unico tenant.

Sono a conoscenza dell’esistenza di tool per effettuare la migrazione, ma ho qualche dubbio lato licensing:
nel tenant di destinazione è necessario acquistare le stesse licenze attualmente in uso (es. Exchange Online, Microsoft 365, ecc.) per tutti gli utenti da migrare?

Oppure esistono modalità alternative?

Il vendor mi ha indicato che è necessario replicare le licenze sul tenant di destinazione e poi procedere con la migrazione tramite tool, ma vorrei capire se ci sono altre opzioni o best practice.

Grazie in anticipo per il supporto.
Resto in attesa di un vostro riscontro.

I am desperately looking for any MSFT employee who can backchannel a Sev A ticket. Can anyone here ping a Duty Manager internally to grab Ticket # 2604180040001263? This is a severe clinical liability and life safety emergency and we cannot get past the automated queue.

What has been tried.

Uninstalling and reinstalling app.
Unlinking account.
Running with /reset flag, which says a vague "unable to do a one drive reset" without saying why.

Despite doing this when I fire it up it has my email address prepopulated so there is something still on the system that isnt cleared.

Hello,

If this can be done through the gui - I'd really really prefer to do that.

I need this for email users essentially but it should be the same thing for the most part.

If you know a powershell method - I apologize but you'll have to spoon feed it to me.

E.g.

Install modudle blah blah blah on Windows

Attach to 365 using blah blah blah command

then run this script

Thanks!

Hello

I am running into a strange issue with Automatic Replies for a handful of users in our M365 Tenant.

• Internal senders receive the automatic reply as expected
• External senders do not receive any automatic reply

This isn't tenant-wide and doesn't affect every user, only a handful of specific mailboxes. I've tried enabling automatic replies directly in Outlook as well as configuring them through the Exchange Admin Center under the user's mailbox.

The option to send replies outside the organization is definitely enabled. I've toggled automatic replies off then back on and re-saved the settings and tested with multiple external domains and mail providers whether it be a gmail or a personal Hotmail account and no luck so far.

I can't see any mail flow or anything blocking the OOF replies.

Has anyone come across this before or has ideas on where else to look?

Thanks

Hello,

Let's say my email domain is widgets.com Is there an easy way to block any emails not really coming from widgets.com but pretending to be from widgets.com ?

E.g. I'm bob@widgets.com and I get an email that says it is from bob@widgets.com or hr@widgets.com but the underlying email address is scammer@fnnigerianprince.com

I can put the spf to -all but I'm open to rules or filters etc. I'd want to roll it out company wide.

Thanks.

My work uses office 365, so our work emails are all through this. I occasionally have to attend external Google meetings, so set up a Google account using my work office 365 email account. I recently lost the password to the Google account and it directs me to contact my domain administrator. I am one of our admins, but it doesn't look like there is anything I can do as a Microsoft administrator regarding external accounts. Am I hooped? Any ideas of how to fix this issue?

I'll be honest.. I tried a couple of “quick install” Office versions before, and every time it was the same story… they either broke or had activation issues later.

Got tired of fixing it again and again, so I finally just did a proper microsoft office download through my Microsoft account and that solved most problems.

I Still rely on WPS Office because it loads way faster and does the job fine. 

This combo has been the least stressful setup for me so far 👍
