external recipients
About this tag
The tag 'external recipients' on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft's MOERA throttle policy, which limits outbound email from onmicrosoft.com domains to 100 external recipients per organization per 24-hour rolling window. This restriction, announced by Microsoft's Exchange team, is being rolled out in stages starting with trial tenants on October 15, 2025, and completing for the largest tenants by June 1, 2026. The policy aims to curb abuse of the shared onmicrosoft.com namespace and protect delivery for legitimate customers. Discussions focus on the impact of this cap, the SMTP error code 550 5.7.236 for exceeded limits, and the need to migrate to a verified custom domain to avoid throttling. Internal email flows remain unaffected.
