Set up your Microsoft 365 monitored mailbox

The initial configuration of your Microsoft 365 monitored ticket mailbox is a crucial step in setting up your MSP Manager account. Your M365 ticket mailbox enables you to receive reported issues and requests from your customers via email.

Combine your ticket mailbox with workflows and routing rules and configure your ticket routing settings so that emails from your customers are automatically converted to tickets and assigned to the correct customer and technician within your company.

Configure your mailbox reply settings to ensure full control over email security, and avoid issues with DMARC and DKIM authentication. This also helps to indicate MSP Manager mail is safe.

Before creating your M365 mailbox, make sure you have configured the M365 integration from your account settings.
