is ******@communication.microsoft.com a legitimate address?

Hello Vallery,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A!

It's smart to be cautious about emails, especially with so many phishing attempts out there.

Yes, ******@communication.microsoft.com is a legitimate address used by Microsoft.

Microsoft uses this specific domain to send official, automated emails to its users. These can include account notifications, security alerts, service updates, and other important information. The domain is part of a system designed to help you verify that an email is genuinely from Microsoft and not a phishing scam.

For your future security, here are a few tips to remember:

• Always check the domain name carefully. Scammers will often use subtle misspellings to trick you.
• Don't click on suspicious links. If an email looks odd, don't click on any links. Instead, go directly to the official Microsoft website to log in and check your account.
• Microsoft will never ask for your password via email. Be very careful about any email that asks you to provide personal details.

I hope this helps you feel more confident about the email you received!

Warm regards,

Winnie
