Exchange Connector Report

  1. To verify if an inbound enforced connector is positively or negatively impacting mail flow into your organization, we will want to navigate to the Inbound Messages Report – Exchange Admin Center portal, here you will be able to view inbound mail flow for the last seven days. Information related to TLS enforcement or lack thereof depending on connector enforcement will be displayed along with volumetric data on each inbound connectors' usage, this information can be utilized to determine if the security configuration of the connector is being deployed properly.
  2. To verify if an outbound enforced connector is positively or negatively impacting mail flow leaving your organization, we will want to navigate to the Outbound Messages Report – Exchange Admin Center portal, here you will be able to view outbound mail flow for the last seven days. Information related to TLS enforcement or lack thereof depending on connector enforcement will be displayed along with volumetric data on each outbound connectors' usage, this information can be utilized to determine if the security configuration of the connector is being deployed properly.
