Office 365 Mail - hide address book for students only

[dobbyit]

Hello all, hope everybody is well in these hard times

I have children emailing staff email addresses and staff are not happy about this,

1 - wondered if we could hide the address book for all children so they do not see their teachers email address

2 - can you limit children to only email certain email accounts

You can create a new address book and limit what is included in it, but it then needs assigning to accounts. All of which can be done via powershell

We originally used the guide from https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ukeducloud/2013/04/15/alumni-address-book-policy-in-office-365-education/

Another way is whitelist or blacklist user or groups from sending email to mail lists.

 

Depending on where your exchange is hosted , this can be done via PS, gui or the attributes field.

Does changing the MSExchQueryBaseDN attribute work with Office365? From what I remember, that changes the base OU for address book lookups. Our students can’t look lower than their own OU, but we are on-prem still.
