We are retiring the ability to delete attachments as a response action in Microsoft Defender for Office 365. Instead admins can continue to take remediation actions on emails, which includes any attachments related to those emails.
We will be retiring the feature the Top Senders and recipient report from Microsoft defender for office 365 beginning March 6, 2021. Instead we recommend the utilization of the Threat protection status report (View email security reports in the Security & Compliance Center – Office 365 | Microsoft Docs), which is where we will continue to invest.
Text predictions help Microsoft 365 users write more efficiently by using intelligent technology to suggest text during composition. This feature is available for Outlook on the web (MC225214, October 2020), Outlook for iOS (MC229558, December 2020), and for Outlook for Windows (MC229381, December 2020).
We are now extending support for text predictions to Outlook for Android for customers in the United States and Canada.
In response to the unprecedented situation we are in and knowing that priorities have changed for many of our customers we are suspending until further notice the disabling of Basic Authentication for any protocols that your tenant is using. This was previously communicated in Exchange Online (MC204828 and MC208814). When we resume this program, we will provide a minimum of twelve months’ notice before we block the use of Basic Auth on any protocol being used.
We will continue with our plan to disable Basic Auth for protocols that your tenant is not using. Many customers don’t know that unneeded legacy protocols remain enabled in their tenant. We plan to disable these unused protocols to prevent potential mis-use. We will do this based on examining recorded usage of these protocols by your tenant, and we will send Message Center posts providing 30 days’ notice of any changes to your tenant. This work will begin in a few months.
We understand that, from time to time, you might disagree with an Exchange Online Protection (EOP) filtering verdict. With this update, you will be able to manually override Microsoft 365 filtering verdicts using the Tenant Allow/Block List (TABL) in the Security & Compliance Center.

We are adding Application Access Policy (AAP) support to Exchange Web Services (EWS) in Exchange Online, as a mechanism to ease transition from EWS to Microsoft Graph.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 68901.
We are retiring the Move message to Junk Email folder policy option for high confidence phishing emails in Exchange Online Protection (EOP) anti-spam policies. Existing policies that rely on the Move message to Junk Email folder option will automatically switch to the Quarantine message option. The Redirect message to email address option is unchanged.
If you are not using the Move message to Junk Email folder option for high confidence phishing emails, there is no impact for your organization.
We are retiring Active Directory Rights Management Service (AD
RMS) support in Exchange Online as of February 28, 2021. Moving forward, we
recommend the utilization of Azure Rights Management Service (Azure RMS).
When organizing Teams meetings in Outlook for Windows for 40 or more participants or 10 or more distribution lists, Teams users will soon see a prompt to set meeting options.
