Hybrid Exchange (70% on cloud – 30% at On-Prem Exchange 20219)
MX Record is pointing to On-Prem Exchange
'I want to change Change MX Pointer from On_prem to On-Cloud Exchange, On-Prem Email Gateway has expired
On-Premise Email Gateway already Expired and not scanning) the smart-host (Symantec Email gateway) subscription has been expired therefore it stopped the inbound scanning.
domain is hosted locally (on-prem), (exchange also hosted on-prem but we migrated to hybrid-exchange since last 1 year)
it was working properly until we had valid subscription.
we need to change the MX Pointer from ON-Prem to On-Cloud so that all inbound email directly land on Microsoft O365 tenant and scan.

I would like to verify the “SFP,DKIM” configuration because we recently Disabled the “Central Mail Flow” where all email now going out directly from Exchange-Online.

You just need to switch MX from Exchange on-premises to Exchange online. About the SPF record, you could have a look about this article.

SPF only for Exchange online:
TXT Name @
Values: v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all
