Andres Bohren
Hi All, Recently I had the Task to set up Entra External collaboration settings with PowerShell.

The modules will not be supported after March 30 2025. It would certainly work, but that would be only a short time solution.

But 1024-bit DKIM keys are no longer “state of the art” today, but are often still accepted for reasons of compatibility.
