About this tag
Cloud-managed remote mailboxes are a new feature from Microsoft that allows organizations to retire their last on-premises Exchange server in hybrid environments. By enabling this per-mailbox setting, Exchange attribute authority is transferred to Exchange Online while core identity remains in on-premises Active Directory. This simplifies hybrid management and reduces infrastructure costs. The tag covers discussions about implementing this feature, its prerequisites, and the step-by-step process for moving mailboxes to cloud management. It is relevant for IT administrators managing hybrid Exchange deployments and planning to fully migrate to Exchange Online.
