Email issues for priority accounts report in the new EAC in Exchange Online

Note

The priority accounts report that's described in this topic is available only to organizations that meet both of the following requirements:

  • At least 5,000 licenses for one or more of the following products: Office 365 E3, Microsoft 365 E3, Office 365 E5, or Microsoft 365 E5. For example, 3,000 Office 365 E3 licenses and 2,500 Microsoft 365 E5 licenses.
  • Your organization needs to have at least 50 monthly active users for one or more core workloads – Teams, One Drive for Business, SharePoint Online, Exchange Online and Office apps

For permissions that are required to use this report, see Permissions required to view mail flow reports.

The Email issues for priority accounts report in the new Exchange admin center (new EAC) allows Exchange admins and global admins* to view failed events from the last 15 minutes and delayed email messages from last 6 hours that were sent to or sent from priority accounts. If no issues are found, the report will be empty. Users can configure to receive email notifications for failed and delayed messages which will provide information at the time alert is fired.

Important

* Microsoft recommends that you use roles with the fewest permissions. Using lower permissioned accounts helps improve security for your organization. Global Administrator is a highly privileged role that should be limited to emergency scenarios when you can't use an existing role.

Priority users are people in your Microsoft 365 organization who have a high business impact, like your CEO, executives, or other users who have access to sensitive or high priority information. For more information about priority accounts, see Manage and monitor priority account. For more reporting for priority accounts, see Exchange Online monitoring for Microsoft 365.

The Unhealthy email status section shows the following information about messages where a priority user is a sender or a recipient:

  • Date
  • Sender
  • Recipient
  • Subject

To quickly filter the results by recipient, click Search Search icon. and start typing the recipient's email address.

    • Field: Select Date, Sender, Recipient, Subject or Status.
    • Operator: Select starts with or is.
    • Value: Enter the value you want to search for.

    You can click Add new clause as many times as you need. Multiple clauses use AND logic (<Clause1> AND <Clause2>...).

    To remove a clause, click Remove Remove icon.

    When you're finished, click Save. The new filter is automatically loaded, and the results are changed based on the filter. This is the same result as clicking Filter and selecting the customer filter from the list.
