About this tag
The source-of-authority tag covers discussions about where authoritative control over Exchange attributes resides in hybrid Microsoft 365 deployments. A key topic is Microsoft's cloud-managed remote mailbox feature, which introduces the IsExchangeCloudManaged switch to transfer source of authority for Exchange-specific properties like email addresses and proxyAddresses from on-premises Active Directory to Exchange Online. This allows organizations to stop running an on-premises Exchange server solely for recipient management. The tag focuses on the governance of Exchange attributes in hybrid environments, including how the source of authority shift affects administration, compliance, and the supported path to fully cloud-managed mailboxes.
