MC1226222 — Prevent/Fix: Guidance for On-Premises Connectors Configuration

MC1226222Exchange OnlinepreventOrFixIssueUpdated: 4 February 2026

Updated guidance warns against using OnPremises inbound connectors with certificates for domains not accepted by the tenant or IPs shared by multiple tenants. Misconfigurations can disrupt mail flow. Use unique client certificates and send connectors per tenant, and ensure third-party services use certificates matching accepted domains.
