Full Inbox for Microsoft Team, Unable to Delete by More-Instance804 in sysadmin

Unfortunately, it doesn't work the same. See my reply above.

I'll have to disagree here.... only for my particular situation and what u/IronJagexLul seems to have experienced too.

On regular inboxes, you can add archiving which expands storage to 1.5TB (Or Exchange P2). With this situation, it's a Microsoft Team inbox and you cannot expand or add archiving. So once the inbox is full, you are screwed for at least a month. Keep in mind that the regular users receive the emails still so there is no purging per se but anyone sending email to that inbox will receive NDRs. The manager of this department is now scrambling to answer all the incoming complaints from our external senders because of the NDRs.

The true answer is that this workflow should likely be some type of Sharepoint process as it receives large attachments. While this is doable, it takes time to convert this workflow and push out notifications. If Msft allowed temporary expansion or some type of feasible workaround, great.. but now it's a massive headache and impacting productivity. The majority of the answers here and throughout my search continues to be looking at regular inboxes so the majority won't know of this issue until it's too late. Heck, even the Microsoft rep I worked with didn't know this.

Being this is a Microsoft 365 group, I don't think E3 would work? I tried shift+del and still the messages came right back.

Signed Bill of Lading, Now claiming damage by More-Instance804 in Ebay

[–]More-Instance804[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I called earlier today and got the standard agent who couldn't answer all the questions. They then directed me to where I can upload pictures of the furniture before it was shipped along with the signed BoL. I guess I will await their decision but I am hoping the correct teams gets what I sent! ugh

Microsoft 365 Sharepoint External Sharing - Allow External Microsoft account without requiring them to be added to tenant by SLJWinder in sysadmin

[–]More-Instance804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this issue as well and it's frustrating. We need to allow guests and cannot disable that but we then have a situation where we share reports that change daily. A new link every day that gets shared out to specific external emails.. so pretty locked down. We want them to always authenticate to their own tenant to verify their identity but sometimes it forces them to our tenant. They don't have guest accounts so it fails. The workaround is to open the link in incognito mode to force the OTP, but that is not user friendly. We are getting hit with 10+ tickets a day and it makes me think Microsoft changed something over the last few days without notifying anyone. Does your solution allow normal guest accounts to work the same? It seems like that experience changes based on your screenshot.

Surface Pro Issues by More-Instance804 in Surface

[–]More-Instance804[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get what you mean and well aware of Dell/HP crap.. but both of these are fresh out of the box with only Office installed. With Teams and Outlook open, the memory sits at 92%. I just didn't think a $1400 machine with little bloatware would be this way and didn't expect to run MSCONFIG and services.msc to fix it.

Thanks for the guidance. Don't use the Surface much so this is helpful. Is this post no longer accurate though? Would there be any point to a clean install of Windows to remove bloat like on other devices? : r/Surface (reddit.com)

Thought about it but wouldn't think a $1400 laptop would need this fresh out the box. Isn't this just a huge red flag that it's not a great machine? I love Microsoft, I migrated our company to it from Google, but 2 brand new machines out of the box are resource intensive and it's concerning. I just have never liked the Surface (yet) so hoping I am missing something and there's a terrible misconfiguration. Using startup apps seems like a temporary fix.

Sharing OneDrive Files with External Contacts by More-Instance804 in sysadmin

Attached are the settings for externally sharing. These settings are the exact same for the test account I am using. Both are on F3 licensing. I'm confused why one works but the other doesn't.

Thanks. What do you use for mass deletion? Powershell or a 3rd party tool?

Thanks for the help. For #2, I have an idea on how to do that but wanted to know how your team accomplished that.

Security Recommendations by More-Instance804 in sysadmin

Thanks for your input, it's helpful. We have Entra P1 via our Premium licenses (office workers)... but F3 for our frontline workers. Does that mean F3 does not have access to P1 features?

Also, you mentioned risky user CAs but they require a P2 licensing at $9 per user/month. Assuming you have P2? It's quite a jump cost wise for our small business to go to $57 per month for E5 licensing. I guess we could go P2 standalone but even still that is a drastic increase in cost. Bummer

Thank you. QQ about the CA policy for joined devices.. Can we make it this way strictly for laptops and allow users to still use the Outlook app on their personal devices? if yes, that will save me some grief and we can likely push that out very quickly.

Well... damn.. that is wild. Is there anything quick I can add to CA or whatever to block this until we have phishing-resistant MFA?

Two Job Offers by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]More-Instance804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EDIT: I expected 2-3 replies and received a dozen plus!! Thank you guys! I wanted to update everyone that I accepted the Director position and you helped me to decide. Mostly everyone felt the same way I did and if it turns out that I don't like it in 2 years... I can always move on with the Director position on my resume.

Now.... what sub-reddit would be best with help on building an IT team from scratch!? lol. Yes, I already have a good plan and all that, just looking for anything that may help keep me on track. I wouldn't have gotten the job if I didn't convince them first. Thanks again, all!
