FWIW I have the same setup as Bill re Admin onmicrosoft accounts. To go one step further, I actually do not want those admin accounts to have a mailbox at all. It's not the money, it's that I don't want customers emailing me at that those addresses, let alone having to worry about spam/phishing coming in to an Admin account.

Another datapoint: I do MS365 admin duty for multiple customers and *my* accounts for doing so are all authenticated as me@<customer>.onmicrosoft.com, but they have no mailboxes of their own and no licenses for any sort of end-user apps. -- Bill Cole b...@scconsult.com or billc...@apache.org (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Not Currently Available For Hire _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
