Setting up the Valimail Mailbox Connector with Microsoft 365

Benefits of connecting Valimail to Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 mailboxes do not send DMARC reporting data in the normal manner. This longstanding issue can prevent some domains from getting to DMARC enforcement.

Valimail offers a reporting solution for organizations using Microsoft Office 365 as their Inbox provider. By connecting to Microsoft 365, you get DMARC reporting data from your own mailboxes generated by Valimail's Helios product.

How do I connect?

Note: You'll need admin permissions in Microsoft Office 365 admin to establish the connection. If you aren't a Microsoft 365 admin, add an admin to your account in the Valimail app and ask them to complete this task for you.

1. Log in to Valimail Enforce and go to Accounts Settings.
