| MC649482 | (Updated) Sender Rewriting Scheme (SRS) Expanding to SMTP/Mailbox Forwarding | Before this change takes effect, customers who route traffic to the internet from their on-premises environment through Exchange Online should enable the new parameter named SenderRewritingEnabled on their Exchange Online outbound mail flow connector of type on-premises to avoid any disruptions. You can do this using the Set-OutboundConnector Note: Although the SenderRewritingEnabled parameter only works for On-Premises connectors, this parameter is visible on Partner connectors as well, where it is set to “FALSE”. This is inaccurate, as the behavior is enabled by default on Partner connectors regardless of the setting value. There is no need to explicitly set to “TRUE”. If you still try to set SenderRewritingEnabled parameter to TRUE on a Partner connector, you will receive an error - “SenderRewritingEnabled cannot be set to TRUE if Connector type is not On-premises”. This error is expected and can be ignored. |
