Had a ticket regarding 3 different sent emails to 3 different third parties which were getting duplicated into an IT mailbox on Office 365.

I double checked the “rules” under Mail flow to make sure there were no BCC rules for the users sending which there were not.

In MailTrace the emails came up as Status “Expanded”. This means the email has been sent to a group, however the original email was sent to a Single External Email address?

Why was the external email being displayed as a group in 365?

Turns Out the Outbound Spam Preferences had been turned on! And for whatever reason, these items were triggering the BCC of suspicious messages!

Recently had a user with a new Office 365 account receive the above error during downloading new email. Testing the connection it looks like the Wireless connection she was connecting to the internet with was intermittently slow.

Changing the Wifi to a hotspot or cable connection resolved this

Previously, we used a development instance of Azure AD Connect with a development Azure AD tenant to investigate the rules. However, Microsoft has created new functionality in the adfshelp.microsoft.com ADFSHelp Portal:

In the Tools section, there is now a Claims Generator wizard labeled Azure AD RPT Claim Rules, that will help you get optimized claims rules for the ‘Office 365 Identity Platform’ RPT.

Recently had a client with Office 365 trying to Cache a Shared Mailbox. Outlook brought up a load of Sync Errors

Your server administrator has limited the number of items you can open simultaneously. Try closing messages you have opened or removing attachments and images from unsent messages you are composing.

If the server is self hosted you can remove the restriction via  : http://henrysluiman.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/how-to-increase-number-of-open-items.html

Microsoft fix for this is removed the Cache! https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3115602/performance-problems-when-you-try-to-access-folders-in-a-secondary-mai

After rebuilding the OST and Profile and still no luck I started Outlook in Safemode which enabled the downloading of the emails

Once downloaded I could start Outlook Normally and all worked fine

There are three ways to forward mail from one user to another in Exchange

1. Exchange Forwarding Most Common – Done by Administrator
2. Inbox Rule – Done by User
3. Hub Transport Rule – Done by Administrator

1 and 3 can be checked easily and there will be references of when this is done and not done usually in tickets , however users can enable Inbox rules by themselves then contact your later to disable the forward.

Here is how to check for forwarding or redirecting rules on mailbox in 365

 foreach ($i in (Get-Mailbox -identity %USERNAME%))
 { Get-InboxRule -Mailbox $i.DistinguishedName | where {$_.ForwardTo} | fl MailboxOwnerID,Name,ForwardTo }

  foreach ($i in (Get-Mailbox -identity %USERNAME%))
 { Get-InboxRule -Mailbox $i.DistinguishedName | where {$_.ReDirectTo} | fl MailboxOwnerID,Name,RedirectTo}

To Disable

Disable-InboxRule -Identity "%NAME OF RULE%" -Mailbox "%USERNAME"

When clicking on the down arrow in Office 365 to change Reply to all to Reply , for some reason the menu showed at the top of the browser

Clearing Cache did not fix this or Zoom size

Reset Chrome to default settings ( which still keeps Favorite bookmarks but clears plugins ) fixed this
