Cloud Architect’s Guide to Exchange Online’s Customizable Recipient Limits
As cloud architects, we’re always looking for ways to make our Exchange Online tenants as secure and efficient as possible. One of the ways we can do this is by setting customized recipient limits. This allows us to control the number of recipients a single user can send an email to, which can help to reduce the risk of a malicious user sending out a mass email.
What are Exchange Online’s Customizable Recipient Limits?
Exchange Online’s customizable recipient limits let us control the number of recipients a single user can send an email to. This limit is set per mailbox, so we can adjust it to meet the specific needs of each user. There are three customizable recipient limits: Maximum Recipients Per Message, Maximum Recipients Per Day, and Maximum Recipients Per Month.
What Are the Benefits of Setting Customizable Recipient Limits?
Setting customizable recipient limits has several benefits. First, it allows us to control the number of recipients a single user can send an email to. This helps to reduce the risk of a malicious user sending out a mass email. It also helps to ensure that our Exchange Online tenants are running as efficiently as possible. Lastly, it helps us protect our tenants from potential security risks such as malicious emails and phishing attempts.
How to Set Customizable Recipient Limits
Setting customizable recipient limits is easy. First, log in to the Exchange Admin Center. Then, click on the “Recipients” tab. From here, you can view and edit the customizable recipient limits for each mailbox. You can also set a default limit that will apply to all users in the tenant.
Conclusion
Exchange Online’s customizable recipient limits offer a great way to help manage the security and efficiency of our Exchange Online tenants. By setting customized limits per mailbox, we can ensure that our tenants are running as securely and efficiently as possible. We can also help to protect our tenants from potential security risks such as malicious emails and phishing attempts.
