Microsoft 365 Messaging — Question 57
You have a Microsoft Exchange Online tenant.
You plan to implement an on-premises alarm system that will send email alerts by using SMTP. The alarm system will NOT support TLS.
You need to ensure that the alarm system can send the alerts to both internal and external recipients by using Exchange Online.
Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct answer is worth one point.
Answer options
- A. Configure the alarm system settings to use a TXT record of the tenant.
- B. Configure SMTP AUTH client submission.
- C. Configure the alarm system settings to use an MX record of the tenant.
- D. Configure direct send.
- E. Create a connector.
Correct answer: C, E
Explanation
The correct answers are C and E. Configuring the alarm system to use an MX record ensures it can send emails to external domains, while creating a connector allows for the proper routing of emails from the alarm system to Exchange Online. Options A, B, and D are not applicable in this scenario as they do not address the requirements for sending emails without TLS to both internal and external recipients.
