Raise user awareness with a MailTip for external recipients in Exchange Online

Policy tips in Exchange Online can be used for a lot of things: warnings if a user sends confidential information to someone outside the organization if a proper DLP policy is in place or other useful things. One simple and effective MailTip is available for a while now and helps to raise user awareness in writing e-mails.

How to update members in an Exchange Online address list in Office365

How to update members in an Exchange Online address list in Office365

Recently, I stumbled on an issue when working with address lists in Exchange Online (Office 365). Existing Members didn’t show up in the list, although their attributes match with the filter expressions used for the address list… Well the creation of a new address list works as expected with the Exchange Online PowerShell New-AddressList cmdlet. The command can be used as here: New-AddressList –Name 'New York and HR' -RecipientFilter {( (department -eq 'New York') -or (department -eq 'Human Resources') )} So, if an object matches the filter criteria, it shall be member of that address list “New York and HR”. So far, so good. ...

Impressions of SharePoint Saturday Paris 2016

Impressions of SharePoint Saturday Paris 2016

On Saturday, the 28th of May 2016, our second SharePoint Saturday Paris took place. Again, the organization team Patrick and Gokan arranged a perfect community event in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. We enjoyed Paris in May (before river Seine flooded the shores one week later), we even had a great speaker dinner on a boat on the Seine. We also had the pleasure to meet with “Mr. SharePoint”, Jeff Teper, Microsoft Corporate Vice-President OneDrive and SharePoint who delivered a keynote and spent time with the SharePoint community. So this event was amazing and special! More than 1.700 tweets sent - see the Twitter statistics by Jussi Roine. ...
