Thank you for your patience.<\/p>\n<p>To reduce the risk of misuse and abuse of Exchange Online resources and ensure service availability for all users, we\u2019ll soon introduce new tenant-level outbound email limits, known as the Tenant External Recipient Rate Limit or TERRL. The TERRL restricts   the number of external recipients a tenant can send email to per day. If the limit is exceeded further messages sent to external recipients from the tenant will be blocked until the volume for the last 24 hours drops below the quota. A tenant\u2019s TERRL quota   is calculated based on the number of email licenses a tenant has purchased. Here is the formula used to calculate a tenant\u2019s quota:  <\/p>\n<p>500 * (Purchased Email Licenses^0.7) + 9500  <\/p>\n<p>To help admins plan and track their outbound email volume, you\u2019ll find a new report in the Exchange admin center:  <i>EAC &gt; Reports &gt; Mail flow &gt; Tenant Outbound External Recipients Rate<\/i>. This report shows the current volume of external recipients, your tenant\u2019s daily quota, how much of the quota is used, and the number of recipients that were blocked if the limit was   exceeded. The report will also show if enforcement for the limit is enabled or disabled. For example, for tenants who have more than 500 email licenses it will show \u201cDisabled\u201d until May 1st, the day we\u2019ll start to enable enforcement for tenants who have more   than 500 licenses.  <\/p>\n<p>[When this will happen:]<\/p>\n<p>This change will roll out in progressive stages over the month of March as per the following rollout schedule:<\/p>\n<table class=\"table table-bordered\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Phase<\/td>\n<td>Enable enforcement for tenant group<\/td>\n<td>Rollout start date<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Tenants with &lt;= 25 email licenses<\/td>\n<td>April 3, 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>+ additional tenants with &lt;= 200 licenses<\/td>\n<td>April 18, 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>+ additional tenants with &lt;= 500 licenses<\/td>\n<td>April 28, 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>+ all remaining tenants<\/td>\n<td>May 9, 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>[How this will affect your organization:]<\/p>\n<p>If your tenant exceeds its daily outbound sending limit further messages sent to external recipients will be blocked and senders will receive one of the following bounce messages (also known as Non-Delivery Receipts or NDRs):  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trial tenants: 550 5.7.232 &#8211; Your message can&#8217;t be sent because your trial tenant has exceeded its daily limit for sending email to external recipients (tenant external recipient rate limit)  <\/li>\n<li>Non-trial tenants: 550 5.7.233 &#8211; Your message can&#8217;t be sent because your tenant exceeded its daily limit for sending email to external recipients (tenant external recipient rate limit)  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[What you need to do to prepare:]<\/p>\n<p>Check the report in the EAC to see your tenant\u2019s quota and current daily outbound email volume and whether or not any messages will be blocked once the TERRL is enabled for your tenant. If your current outbound email volume is well below the quota, you don\u2019t   have to do anything. If your outbound email volume is near or exceeding your quota, consider using  <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/communication-services\/overview\" target=\"_blank\">  Azure Communication Services email<\/a> for high-volume email to external recipients instead. ACS email which offers significant advantages and features for high-volume email, especially for external recipients. Messages sent using ACS email are not counted   against your Tenant External Recipient Rate Limit quota.  <\/p>\n<p>For more information about the Tenant External Recipient Rate feature and report please see this blog post:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/blog\/exchange\/introducing-exchange-online-tenant-outbound-email-limits\/4372797\" target=\"_blank\">Introducing Exchange Online Tenant Outbound Email Limits<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MC1023294 | (Updated) New Exchange Online Tenant Outbound Email Limits Classification planForChange Last Updat [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11124\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/m365jp.net\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
