Don’t use “Outlook (new)” in #Windows 11. I just did a tcpdump and looked also at my #mail servers when setting up an account in there. The mail client only spoke with Microsoft-servers, never with my mail-servers and I saw on my mail-servers only connections from Microsoft-IPs.
@nielsk So would it make sense to block MS on submission and IMAP ports? What legitimate business could they have?
@unixtippse If your users use the new Outlook which will replace Windows Mail you can’t block them.
@nielsk You haven't tested whether it falls back to direct communication, though, have you?
@unixtippse No, I didn’t. I just had a support team member telling me that Outlook didn’t work and if we can make it work (it worked for him after a reboot) and that’s why I did what I did.
